Over-active Activity

August 22, 2007 6:07 PM

I was digging through my "Activity" and discovered that, in Safari, clicking on "Older" or "Newer" opened the next page in a new window. Clicking "Older" or "Newer" in that window opens yet another new window. And so on... Weirdly, clicking on "Older" or "Newer" in Firefox opens the pages in new tabs. Repeatedly.

Hey Thorzdad, sounds like you have "Open links in new windows?" checked in your profile. If you uncheck that you'll stay in the same window.

Does safari have tabs? Do you have firefox set to never make a new window?

Thanks, Matt!

I'm still waiting on the fixed target=_self in the random links, so that it doesn't open up a new window.

Pretty plz?

Matt, this is where you close the thread before it gets hairy.
