Firefox used to open articles and links in a new tab many versions ago. I want that feature back. How do I get it. Help doesn't help much on this issue. I don't want to keep having to backup to see the original page, as there maybe several links or articles I want to open at the same time, while still seeing the original page.

You can push down on the middle scroll wheel on your mouse on links or press "ctrl" and click on what you want to open in a new tab.

CTRL and click worked best, as it also moves over to the new tab. Pushing the scroll wheel starts a new tab, but you are still viewing the original page. Both are better than what I was doing. However, I am interested in a single click switch to the new tab, if it is available anymore.

Thanks for the help, it is greatly appreciated.
