Middle mouse button click, new tab opened AND switched to that tab.
Hi,
Is this new feature? Once I click on link with middle mouse button, that tab is opened and switched to it. Previous firefox versions only opened tab and thats it. It is very frustrating. I want open multiple tabs and then view those tabs. Now I have to, suppose I have 5 links listed in webpage:
I middle mouse 1st link Then I have to return to my previous page I middle mouse 2nd link Then I have to return to my previous page I middle mouse 3rd link Then I have to return to my previous page I middle mouse 4th link Then I have to return to my previous page I middle mouse 5th link Then I have to return to my previous page
If it is new DEFAULT, then please make ant option to switch back in about:config, thanks!

Check Settings > General > Tabs : When you open ... switch to it immediately. Make sure that isn't ticked/checked.

What kinda mouse are we talking about and is this the scroll wheel or actual middle button? And did you install the correct mouse driver for it to work correctly.

Note that you can hold the Shift key to reverse the default focus setting when you middle-click a link or hold Ctrl and left-click.
