When I right click on a link and select, "Open Link In New Tab", a new tab opens but the focus stays on the old tab. I know that when I do this in Netscape the new tab becomes the active one. Is there some preference I can set to make this work properly or is it just a glitch?? Thanks again!

Didn't find the information you thought to find?

Try Tools->Options->Advanced->Browsing -- Select new tabs opened from links.
