I'm creating an extension and using JS to open a new window. I've tried a variety of forms including something like: window.open("https://www.FOO.com" + dest,,"_newtab") and just window.open(url).. The option is set (tools/options) to open in a new tab. I've looked at preferences and forum suggestions to no avail. The proper url opens in a new window instead.

I've disabled all other addons and plugins.

I suspect I'm doing something silly, but would appreciate any insights.

Thx, --Don

Thanks for the reply. I'd seen those articles. AFAIK, the default settings are as they should be to open in a new tab (3 & 2 respectively). ...new_window.override.external = -1 though I don't know what that does or if it has any bearing on the issue.

Thx, --Don
