Bazj Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Why, when I click on a link that someone has posted, doe the link not only open in a new window, but the page I clicked also has the link opening too..... so I get the link opened twice??? Is there a setting somewhere that says "open link on same page" and "open link in new window" and they have both been ticked??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WireWarrior97 Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 You might be double clicking, or if you can just right click on the link and select open in new tab or window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 no.... just clicking it once makes all of the above happen!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 Does it happen on ALL links you press from within topics Baz or just certain ones ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted September 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 all of them..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted September 13, 2011 Report Share Posted September 13, 2011 I've just tried a few and they all work as they normally do for me (ie they open once in a new window) Has it always been like that for you Baz or only recently ? Are you using IE, firefox or another ? Mobile or pc ? Red or Black ? ...but I recon WireWarrior is probably right and you are probably twitching a bit in your old age or clicking frantically Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted September 14, 2011 Report Share Posted September 14, 2011 If your browser uses tabs/new windows. Check that it is set to open new links in a new tab. this can be found under tools,options,tabs. The option for opening a link in a new window/tab should be ticked. If this does not cure it try right clicking on the link and selecting open in a new window or tab. You could also check the double click speed of the mouse as it may be set too sensitive. hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
