How to set k-meleon to not switch to newly opened tab?

Hi, I'm a new user to k-meleon. So far it's been great except for one thing that I'm quite OCD about.. when I CTRL-click a link in order to open it in a new tab, I hate it when the browser automatically switches to the newly opened tab. Is there a setting to open new tabs in the background? (Couldn't find this option in Preferences)

Thanks. (:

F2 > Mouse Gestures?

Right-click on link & chose? (that is what I do)

Does Your previous browser?

Menu: Tools > Mouse Accelerators e.g. like Firefox.

Else redefine accel via menu: Edit > Configuration > Accelerators

Go to EDIT - CONFIGURATION - ACCELERATORS and enter the following code.

#Ctrl + left click links to the background:
%ifplugin tabs
CTRL lButton = ID_OPEN_LINK_IN_BACKGROUNDTAB
%else
CTRL lButton = ID_OPEN_LINK_IN_BACKGROUND
%endif


Save the file and restart KM.
