Forum Bug for Chrome ?

Post by anonmouse »

Middle clicking the link of a forum topic loads the page in the current tab and a new tab for me in the latest chrome stable builds.
Happening to anyone else ?

Actually, Ctrl-clicking has the same effect in Firefox as well. Sounds like there is an additional JavaScript-based click handler on the forum links.

Some actually prefer it the way it is: http://forums.lanik.us/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=10200

Well, it's not like this problem can't be fixed. The JavaScript click handler just shouldn't do anything if the event target is a link.
