Bug#410954: Tabs preference "New pages should be opened in 'a new tab' doesn't seem to work

[Patrick Scholl]

I have had the same problem with the version 2.0.0.16.

The solution  proposed by Michel Lespinasse (see message #24) works fine for me.

Thanks Michel.

Bug#410954: Tabs preference "New pages should be opened in 'a new tab' doesn't seem to work

[Michel Lespinasse]

I was hitting this as well, on all of my debian machines at several sites,
most of them running etch.

Today I found a fix: in the preferences menu, selecting
"new pages should be opened in a new window", then again
"new pages should be opened in a new tab" fixes the issue.
This worked on all of my debian machines. Yay :)

After doing this workaround, in about:config I can see that
browser.link.open_newwindow is user-set to integer 3. Before that,
it was showing the default value, which IIRC was integer 2.

Could it be that debian provides these defaults and that the initial
values cause the inconsistency between what's displayed in the preferences
menu and what actually happens when clicking on a link ???

Hope this helps,
