Kia ora - I was shown this great way of keeping up with discussion threads on WikiEducator.
 
I am now wondering is it possible to create links in new tabs from the Wiki rather than using right click to open in new tab?
Thanks
Nathan

Hi Nathan

Could you send the link again --- doesn't appear to be linking to your intended target in my email client.

Thanks :-)

That sounds like the kind of thing that would be straightforward to do
in a Google Chrome Extension "content script" or a Firefox
Greasemonkey script. That would give you the control to decide if you
wanted it to *always* happen. (There may even already be one that can
be customized to fit your preferred way of working.)

Becoming comfortable with browser scripting can really change how you
view the web.

But a multiple button mouse seems like the easiest/most flexible solution. :-)
