Tabbed browsing

I am trying to figure out, is there a way to set it so that when you open a new tab, it doesn't switch to it? I like to line of my tabs to look at later, then go down the line. It's annoying to have it switch to the tab whenever I middle click a link.

No prob. Check the mouse accelerators table in Help > FAQ

Which browser does it like that? :s

Also see Tools -> Mouse Accelerators.

@ Dallin

This is easily done. Use EDIT - CONFIGURATION - ACCELERATERS and change your middle button code. The code you need is already there. It is just commented out. Remove the # from each line so that the code looks like this. Save the file and restart KM.

Middle-click links to the background:
%ifplugin tabs
MButton = ID_OPEN_LINK_IN_BACKGROUNDTAB
%else
MButton = ID_OPEN_LINK_IN_BACKGROUND
%endif

Tools - Mouse Accelerators. Choose any other than default.

Thanks a ton guys, that's exactly how I wanted it to work. I can't believe I missed that the first time through! I was using an early version of Firefox before that did it that way. It got far too resource intensive to run though, multi-tasking like I do.

Thanks again.
