How To Open Any Link in a New Tab or Window

preview_player
Показать описание
If you want to open a link in a new tab without right-clicking and selecting "Open link in new tab", simply hold down the Control (Ctrl) key on you keyboard while you click the link. This will open the link in a new tab or window. It saves you the trouble of hitting the back button if you searched for something and the link you click isn't what you are looking for.
It works on YouTube Annotation Links too!!
I know for a fact that this keyboard shortcut works on windows computers, but I'm not sure about Macs because I don't have one.
It is a very simple tip and it helps me a lot. I hope someone will find it useful.

AWESOME!!! this is EXACTLY what I was looking for. Youtube's system is so archaic. So many things they need to change like when you see more than one suggested video you may like to see, you click one, loads it on THAT page, watch it, then go back to watch the other one and it's loaded new ones so you lost it. TYTY for this upload . So happy it still works :D

Well it is kind a lazy time saver, but it works for me because I usually leave my left on my keyboard most of the time for Control-Clicking links and use Alt+Tab to switch between programs

you can click the middle button (wheel button) to do the same thing.

I'm not sure if that's directly possible. But if you're into keyboard shortcuts then Ctrl+Tab will cycle forward to the next tab and Ctrl+Shift+Tab will cycles backwards. I know it's not exactly what you want, but it's the best i found.

Thanks. As long as I've got my hand up on the CTRL key already anyway, I guess this will have to be the way to go. I can't be the only one out there that would like the new tab to open for viewing automatically. I can't believe this isn't an option somewhere in setup.

@humzas2010 - I know you said you use Chrome... I don't use Chrome so I can't help with that, but for others using IE (I'm using IE9), it works like this:

1) Click Tools->Internet Options. Make sure you are on the "General" tab on that window.
2) Look for the "Tabs" section and click "Settings".
3) On the settings page, find the checkbox labeled:
"Always switch to new tabs when they are created"
4) Check this checkbox to enable the feature.
5) Click OK twice to dismiss the two dialog boxes.
