Windows XP SP3 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:12.0) Gecko/20120429 SeaMonkey/2.9.1 That works for me. The preference variable in "about:config" is browser.tabs.loadInBackground. The value is "true" to have the new tab behind the old one and "false" to have the new tab in front. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/>.
