This is a problem with SeaMonkey v2.4.1. I have some bookmarks which are
groups of tabs. When I click on one of these and select "Open all in
tabs", I want it to open ALL the pages in NEW tabs. Instead, it replaces
the page I am currently viewing with the first page of the group and
then opens new tabs for the rest.

My tabbed browsing preferences are set as follows:

Tab display
Hide the tab bar when only one tab is open - NOT checked
Switch to new tabs opened from links - checked
Warn me when closing a window with multiple tabs - checked
Open related tabs after current tab - checked

When opening a bookmark group - Add tabs is checked

Open tabs instead of windows for - both choices checked

The only way I can open a group without overwriting a current page is to
open a blank tab first and start from there. I have seen this problem in
every version from v2.1 forward. This was NOT a problem with SeaMonkey
v2.0.14, and all the settings seem to be the same. Is there some other
setting I haven't found that needs to be changed? If not, is there
another solution? Thanks!

I middle-click on the link, and that opens the tabs up as you desire.

I don't have a middle button on my mouse. Only a left and right. In any
case, the program is not behaving as it appears it should with the
settings I have.

Looks like this may be related to 2 previous bugs: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=369440 &/or
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=616601

They concentrate on the behavior of clicking on the Home button, expecting all open tabs to be completely **replaced** with the home group, however many tabs that entails. What happens is that 1 tab is replaced, all others are left open, and more added.

Yours appears to be doing the opposite: you want **adding** to take place, and your group is replacing.

So yours is working the opposite of what's chosen in the settings, the other way around from the original bugzilla items??
