Launching new windows in tabs

Post by nrmx »

is there anyway to get pheonix to automaticaly launch a new window in a new tab? Lets say for exapmle I click on a link and it opens up another window with the new page in it. Can that new page be opened up in a tab instead?

Also, right now I am using Mozilla mail as my mail client. How can I make the links clicked in mozilla mail to launch in Pheonix.

The Tabbrowser Extensions give you this and more.

This is definitely a FAQ

So does "middle clicking" a link... (on a wheel mouse, click the wheel...) I get a new tab opened in the background.

Really? Never had thought of this before... this must be what the pref panel option "Open a tab when middle-clicking a link in a Web page" means. :wink:

The question was how to make links open in a new tab automatically that would otherwise go into a new window (target="_blank"), which is not possible with plain Phoenix.
