When I go to open a link within a tab, it overrides what is there and opens. I would lik the option of opening a link from within a tab or the menu bar, into a new tab. I cant find that option, the only one being opening a new windows in a new tab Can you help? Thanks

One method is to right click a link and use the option to open a new tab.
