Set the options for what you want:
1. On the menu bar, select [Edit > Preferences].
2. On the left side of the Preferences window under Category, select
[Browser > Tabbed Browsing]. Set how you want to see tabs. For
example, under "Tab Display", I unchecked the first checkbox; I do not
get the tab bar unless I have two or more tabs open in the same window.
Also, I checked both checkboxes under "Open tabs instead of windows
for"; I never use the second option there but always use the first
option ("Middle-click ...").
3. Then, under Category, select [Browser > Link Behavior]. Set what
you want to happen when you open a new or replaced window or tab. For
example, in the first set of radio buttons under "Open links meant to
open a new window ...", I selected the second radio button for "A new
tab in the current window"; this works only for an actual link to a new
Web page that is designed to launch a new window. In the second set of
radio buttons under "When scripts want to open ...", I selected the
first radio button; this causes JavaScript to open a new tab in the
current window when it would otherwise open a new window. In the third
set of radio buttons under "Links from other applications", I selected
the third radio button; this means that my E-mail (not SeaMonkey),
newsgroups (Thunderbird), and various other non-Mozilla applications
that want to open Web pages do it in a new window.
