The typical expected behavior is that when I use Command key plus clicking on a link it should open in a new tab.

I am on OSX, I do not have a quick way to see if this problem happens for Ctrl+click on Windows..

But in reality, this only usually works. I am working with phpmyadmin and the phpmyadmin demo does replicate the problem.

https://demo.phpmyadmin.net/master-config/

clicking the links on the left side of the screen (databases and tables) with Command+click loads the new link in the same window, just as click by itself does.

The expected behavior is that this would always work. Strangely, I have tested this in both Safari and Chrome. Chrome gets the expected behavior correct. But Safari also does not work, just on the phpmyadmin website and not on any other.

Does anyone have any idea why this would be happening?

If this is not a normal link, but a JavaScript onclick handler processes mouse click then the Command key modifier might not work. You can possibly check this via the right-click context menu in the Inspector. If there is an event label appended to this tag then this means that an onclick handler is attached.

You can right-click and select "Inspect Element" to open the builtin Inspector with this element selected.
