When I open the page saved on the bookmarks bar in a new tab, the browser switches to it. How to make the browser stay on the current tab and not switch to a new tab?

Hi vladganja,

I made a little research, It seems it is possible to open a bookmark in a new tab while focusing on your current tab: In "about:config" browser.tabs.loadBookmarksInBackground true

Howether, about opening a bookmark in a new window while focusing your current window, I was not able to find any option !

Regards
