Just wondering, and sorry for starting another thread on Firefox but this is help I need rather than praising of Firefox.
so here's my question: when clicking a link - say here on hexus - how do I get it to automatically open up the link in a new tab not a new window?
is tehre something somewhere in the settings I can alter?

hold Ctrl while clicking on the link
You can also use the middle mouse button.

Not hard to find!!!
Here's a LINK to test the theory too
Tabbrowser Extensions does this automatically, also you can scroll through open tabs with mwheel
It can be a little dodgy sometimes
If you open a link OUTSIDE firefox (and you have done Tools>Options>Advanced>Tabbed Browsing) it will open in a new tab, but if you click a link in one window (say this one) it'll try and open it in a new window, instead of a new tab.
Just Control click the link, much simpler
middle mouse button all the way tbh

Under Window mode choose "single window mode"
Require the tabbed browser extension as posted by Cuffz above.
