When selecting a site from the bookmark toolbar it opens in the existing (in use) tab. I would like it to open a new tab for each selection.

I ese the bookmarks toolbar extensively for the common actions I need in the working environment. When I click on a bookmark in that toolbar it opens in the current tab and displaces the work that is open. I believe I should have the option to "open new bookmarks in a new tab"

I have checked the "Options" screen and I have looked in the help but no answers to date

if you right click on the bookmark or any like for that matter you should get a menu pop up and the third one down should be 'open in a new tab'
