Ie7

I have a problem with IE7 (Surprised?) When I click on a link, say, in someones signature, it opens in a new window, but I want it to open in a new tab. I've looked all over the settings, but cannot find it. Help welcome

Cheers!

Jack

IE7:gavel2:

Hold down CTRL when clicking on the link, works in both IE and FF

Hope this helps

PS, don't think there is anything you can actually do to change the default setting, (surprise surprise)

Off topic i know but does anyone know when IE8 will be out??

Jack, check out Tools > Internet Options. Then find the 'Settings' button for tabs (near the bottom). That should give you all the settings you want

P.S The one you want is 'When a pop-up is encountered' - set it to 'always open pop-ups in a new tab'
