Open links in the same tab?
Whenever I browse on Firefox and click on a link it opens in a new tab, I want it to open in the same tab. Is that possible? Because every time I open up a link, then my tabs gets longer, like ten in one window.

Hello iSkyiera
- In the Location bar, type about:config and press Enter. The about:config "This might void your warranty!" warning page may appear.
- Click I'll be careful, I promise!, to continue to the about:config page.
- At the Search area type(or copy/paste the next) browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction then, double-click on it and change the value to 0 (zero)
- click OK.
Do the same with the : browser.link.open_newwindow and change the value to 1 (one)

You can set the browser.link.open_newwindow to 1 on the about:config page
See:
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow (default: 3)
- 1: current tab; 2:new window; 3:new tab;
This pref set the behavior for JavaScript links:
- http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction (default: 2)
- 0:all; 1:none; 2:only special windows
