I am running 3.6.12 and my new tab and/or window actions are the same. How can i open new links within apps into new tabs?

I used to be able to control new tab actions such as opening on top of current tab or in a new tab. This is frustrating as i always cover up where I am or was! How can this be corrected so I can open a new tab in a new tab? I am enrolled in an on-line class and can not open tabs in a new tab as needed as it always places the new tab on top of teh current or old tab.

Funny as i use to complain about opening in new windows!

I am missing how to control new tabs and new window actions?

THanks, William

Do you have any tab related extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) that allow to divert links?
See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems

Did you ever made changes to the prefs browser.link.open_newwindow and browser.link.open_newwindow.restriction yourself on the about:config page?
