FireFox annoying tab problem

Me again with a small but very annoying issue with FireFox.

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!

 

Have you tried the following?

tools/advanced/browsing -- uncheck open links in the background

tranquilo

 

Yes Yes Yes

Yes, that worked...thanks so much, it was really driving me bonkers.

 

Doesn't work in Version 0.9 (Firefox)

I'm back to the same problem now and I don't have the option under advanced tools anymore. Any ideas??? Thanks!

 

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

 

Thanks!!

Thanks for your help...it worked great!!
