is there a way to stop a window opening in a new tab in current android? The point of using Ff on my (slow) tablet was to use fewer resources, plus it's just annoying to end up with 20 tabs open for no good reason. Will go back to Chrome if there's no way to stop this. I notice other people asking same question, and their question is archived with no responses, so I'm not optimistic.
