 Check Setup - Options manager - Document - Browsing - Links -
 Handling of target=_blank (document.browse.links.target_blank).  Is it

Thanks.. it was set to ‘1’.. sorry I didn't find it.. I was looking in
the wrong place.

 It still exists.  What happens when you try to access it?

Er... I ‘join’ it.. :-)

Must've been down temporarily for some reason..

Apologies for the noise and thanks a bunch for the tab solution.. was
really beginning to freak me out.

 This does not appear to be the case if I use the ‘seamonkey’ web
 browser instead of ELinks.
 
 Could anybody confirm that this is not due to a mistake in my
 configuratiion, which I doubt since I haven't changed anything lately
 and this behavior started a few weeks ago. 

In seamonkey, I can eliminate this behavior by checking ‘Open links
passed from other applications - The current tab/window’ under ‘Links
from other applications’. 

These configuration options live under ‘Preferences-Tabbed Browsing’.

I checked the ELinks ‘Options-User interface-Window tabs’ and could
not find an equivalent.

Does this mean that I should request an enhancement..?

If so, how do I go about doing that?

Thanks,

 If recreatable, if there is a simple workaround to avoid this?

 Is it temporarily unavailable or is it gone for good?

Any ideas..?

Another recent annoyance is that on many web pages I first see a popup
to the effect that my browser is ‘too old’ or something.. so I have to
hit the Escape key all the time before I can do any browsing. 

Anyone seen this, and found a workaround, maybe?

Thanks,
