Even though I have the box "Open new windows in a new tab instead" checked, when I click on one of the links in my Bookmarks Toolbar, it doesn't open in a new tab window. I clicked several bookmarks from the toolbar and it happens on all of them.

Also, when I click on different links from different AppleMails, it DOES open a new tab/window.

How can I get the links in my toolbar to recognize the preference chosen to make a new tab/window?

Valgt løsning

The setting in Tools > Options > Tabs: "New pages should be opened in": "a new tab/window" is for links that specify a target window to open the link.
That option allows to divert such links to a new tab instead of a new window.

For links that do not specify a target use a middle-click or hold down Ctrl and left-click the link or use the right-click context menu to open the link in a new tab or window.

This used to work in FF9 without any gimmicks, but in FF10 I have to use Ctrl or whatnot. Please give a solution to make it work like in FF9.
