When using "cmd+click link" to open a link from Gmail in a new tab - the tab opens in the foreground instead of the background.

When I get links sent to me in Gmail and I want to view them I usually "press cmd + click link" to open the link in a new window. When I do this in Gmail it opens as a foreground tab even if my default action is to open in the background.

This is not the case in Hotmail or on other site - just Gmail. If I rightclick and Open in new tab then it opens correctly in a background tab but I would like this action using "cmd+click" if possible.

How about Cmd+Shift+click ?

Are you sure that you want to continue using Firefox 5.0.1 as shown with the information submitted with your question?



Not related to your question, but...

You may need to update some plug-ins. Check your plug-ins and update as necessary:

Hi - thanks for the messasge !

CMD + Shift + Click gives the same results as CMD + Click

Both still open the links in the foreground  :(

P.S. I am using Firefox 8.0.1 now

P.P.S. I just tried restarting the browser in Safe mode and that didn't change the actions. I also wondered if it was because I had my Gmail tab as "pinned" but I tried unpinning it and it had the same actions using CMD or CMD + Shift with clicking - but when selecting "Open In New Tab" from the menu it opens in the background.
