Re: Forcing a new Tab - possible

Most probably you're encountering a fake link (something which looks like a link but it really isn't) which only purpose is to execute a script (which might open a link on its own), therefore no "Open Link in New Tab" option is available. This is more a content authoring problem and not a SeaMonkey one. IIRC there's an ongoing work to make it possible for such elements to execute in a new tab.

When you encounter something like that, you can mark the last letter of the text just before the clickable element and make the end of the marked block the first letter of the text just after the element. Viewing the source code of the selection will show you (as Stanimir indicated) that what you have encountered is a script, not a hyperlink. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
