instead of popup,make new tab in firefox browsers

[Keendev]

hi, I have a link and popup pages in my main page,if possible instead of popping a page it would be best for the website to just automatically create a new tab window if/when using Firefox.

is this possible ?

any advice would be a great help.

tnx.

This is not possible to do from the page. The user controls how they want windows to appear - and if they choose for all windows to appear in tabs... then that's their call.

If you are working on a firefox extension though, then you can do it... just not on a web page.

Cheers,
Jeff

It might be worthy to mention that when using firefox a user can choose to have all links that are supposed open in new windows open in new tabs instead.

The way to add support for this user choice is to make your links like this

<a href="..." [COLOR=red]target="_blank"[/color]>...</a>

This way, you can let the user choose what they want when they click on your link.
