Hi, I just upgraded to the new version of FF and when i now open links from my current page, they open on the same page rather than in a new tab. How do I fix this? I know that it sometimes depends on the page, but pages that used to open links in new tabs (and do in IE) open on the current page in FF.

How do I fix?

thanks amit.

You can middle click a link to open the link in a new tab.

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

Hi, I don't have a middle button, and i can right click and say open in new tab, but i thought that the options to open in new tab would be available so when you click it knows what your options are.

thanks

If you do not have a middle button on your mouse then you can use a Ctrl left-click instead.
