There should be more information in the "infobar" about the reason Firefox didn't go directly to the new tab. For example:

(1) Popup window -- see: Pop-up blocker settings, exceptions and troubleshooting

(2) Redirect -- Do you have Firefox set to block certain redirects? You can check here:

"3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options

In the left column, click Advanced. On the right side, with the "General" mini-tab active, uncheck the box for "Warn me when websites try to redirect or reload the page" if it is checked. This is an accessibility feature for users of screen reading software and not a general-purpose tool of value to most users.
