Hi everyone, As I understand it, you have to press the Apple key to open up tabbed pages in Safari. Is there anyway to click on links and have a tabbed page open up without having to press the Apple key. TIA, Danny >> Stay informed about: Tabs in Safari

Or control-click, for those using one-button mice. Or click and hold until the context menu pops up. Takes a second or two. -- Plain Bread alone for e-mail, thanks. The rest gets trashed.

Being ultimately lazy (hehehe), I would like to be able to left-click on a link and be taken straight to a tabbed page. I don't really want the extra step of the right-click option. >> Stay informed about: Tabs in Safari

Clicking the middle mouse button (scroll wheel or ball, if your mouse has one) on a link opens the link in a new tab.

If you've configured it that way. On my system that button invokes "Spaces", to allow a quick switch. -- Tom Stiller PGP fingerprint = 5108 DDB2 9761 EDE5 E7E3 7BDA 71ED 6496 99C0 C7CF >> Stay informed about: Tabs in Safari

I don't really want the > extra step of the right-click option. If you hold command down while left clicking, this is not as much trouble as right clicking. Left and click at same time gets it. Right click gets you to another decision to make. Anyway, if your wish were granted, you would store up extra steps and trouble anyway. It would be like having brain that could not forget anything. Forgetting and dispensing is an important management asset. If you were to browse a site and every link was to open auto in a new tab, then think of the strain on your browser, memory and you. Instead of using the hopefully well thought out navigation system of a website, you are staring at lots and lots of teensy not greatly titled tabs which you then have to manage. -- dorayme >> Stay informed about: Tabs in Safari

As far as I know this is the default with non-Apple mice. It works the same way in Firefox, by the way.
