how do i configure FF (3.6.13) to display search engine results on a new tab? It used to do this for me but now doesn't anymore, and I can't find any config settings to change this.

Type about:config in the URL bar and hit Enter.
If you see the warning, you can confirm that you want to access that page.

browser.search.openintab is the preference, true is the value.
