I have two computers in my home, one laptop and one desktop. In my old desktop (Firefox 5), to open a link in a new tab, I would click the middle mouse button, which opens the link in the foreground tab (similar to Ctrl+Shift+Left-click).

In my laptop though, the middle mouse button opens a link in the background tab (Ctrl+Left-click), how do I change the middle mouse setting to opening a new link in the foreground tab? It's really annoying when you have lots of links.

If you have lots of links to open in separate tabs would it not be better to open tabs in background so it does not keep focusing on newly opened tab if they were opened in foreground each time?. Not sure if your mixing the two words.

Anyways you can select what you want in Tools->Options->Tabs -> [] When I open a link in a new tab, switch to it immediately.

I have this unchecked so I can open lots of new tabs without it always trying to focus on newly opened foreground tab each time.

Yeah I probably mixed up those two words. Anyway that solution solved my problem.

Thanks!
