Hi,

Sometimes I visit a webpage, and right after I clicke a link on that page with my left mouse-button, I see another link that I would like to click! Then I usually stop the browser from loading the page, go back, middle-click the other link and left-click the first link again. Or, I click the other link with the left mouse-button instead of the first link. Now, if only I could have a way of opening the previous page in a new tab!

Despite your browsing habits, I see no arguments for not making it possible for Konqueror to open the previous page in a new tab.

My favorite way of doing that, would be to simply middle-click the back button. How I wish that it was possible! I have even middle-clicked it intuitively in the past, with nothing happening.

Thank you so much if this dream of middle-clicking the back-button could come true. :-)

Happy hacking!

Middle-click on back-button opens a new window here (3.5 Alpha), you just have to check the option to open a tab instead of a new window instead or press Ctrl while middle-clicking.

This does not work in my current version, so I really look forward to start using 3.5 Alpha or later. Thanks! :)

A current 3.4 would be enough.
