Description Martin Koller 2017-03-09 20:58:03 UTC 
On openSuse 42.2

Often a simple left-click on a URL-link in an article (from the page of the full article) does simply nothing.
Although I can right-click the link, and selecting "open link in new tab" then opens the link in a new tab.

Eg. I read https://electrek.co/2017/03/09/tesla-model-s-screwed-vw-phaeton/
Then I click on the Twitter link to https://twitter.com/FredericLambert
This does not work and nothing happens.
But as said above, from the context menu I can open the twitter link.

When I click another link, e.g. https://electrek.co/guides/tesla/ on the same page, this DOES open a new background tab with the clicked link.

Can this be a problem with "cross site" links ?

Left mouse click is set to "open in background tab"
