--- Comment #28 from Timeshifter <[email protected]> --- I see now that we are talking about 3 different things: search suggestions, and 2 kinds of form submission. This thread (that I started) is concerned mainly with the submit button, and also the search result list that is returned when one clicks "containing Poland" at the bottom of the dropdown list. I am referring to the image you linked to. Here is a page elsewhere with a search form at the top: *http://www.bugzilla.org I tested 3 browsers. Chrome allows one to Ctrl-click a form submit button (or "containing..." link, to open the results in a new tab, or to Shift-click to open the results in a new window. Firefox and Internet Explorer do not allow one to submit a form to a new tab or window by ctrl-click, shift-click, middle click, right click, etc. See Bugzilla@Mozilla - "Bug 17754 - Ability to submit form in a new window / tab (when button is middle or right clicked)": *https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17754#c124 The Firefox developers are not going to add this ability. See comment 124 and 151 in that thread. Thanks are due to Andre Klapper and his comment in that thread pointing out those two authoritative comments, 124 and 151. My suggestion is to allow one to choose this option by checking off a box in the search tab of my preferences: [[Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-searchoptions]] This could be built in to MediaWiki as an option. Then people would not have to install the gadget in every MediaWiki installation it could be useful in. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
