recently when i click a link in a post, e.g. the imdb link, it used to open in a new window but now it opens in the same tab, fink it may have conincided with updating Firefox to v1.0 but not sure. is this the same 4 others using Firefox?

Yep, but it can be changed if you'd like.

Tools -> Options -> Advanced -> Tabbed Browsing

also look at the "tabbrowser extentions" for some real control over how its handled.

nah i already checked the advanced-tabbed browsing but there is not an option to open links in new windows there

new windows??? urgghh, thats it rape one of the best things about alternatives to IE!

The aforementioned extension can do that if you so with to go "back to the primitive"

@spud am jus grabbin the tabbrowser extensions atm so will ave a look

while your at it why don't you rape a view horses and ride off on the women?

Butcher!

nah like some times to open in a new window but mosttimes not D
