Check Setup -> Options manager -> Document -> Browsing -> Links ->
Handling of target=_blank (document.browse.links.target_blank).  Is it
set to 0?

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

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,

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,
