Why do I get double (duped) windows that open when I hit a Fluther link?

This might be the culprit.

If you hold down command (the key to the left of the space bar) it will open the link in a new tab in the same window.

Jp; problem seems to have fixed itself, but I always welcome your tech hints. Thanks (Command is the Apple and ⌘, right?)

Yeah, that would be it.

And you are right about the “better links” culprit. I would post a comment but don’t know the proper language. What’s the difference, anyway, between a tag and a window?

I was wrong. Problem has not fixed itself. The easiest way is to delete the extra window (tag?).

A tab looks like this. It is basically a way to have a bunch of different web pages open in the same window.

Hrm… this is puzzling. We tested this extensively to prevent that.

What browser are you using, again?

I can reproduce it in Safari 3.1.2 on OS X 10.5.5

I never use Safari so my preferences are the default.

Safari; 3.1.2 (4525.22*) on OS X 10.4.11. I just opened JP’s tab link and got double windows. Not a big deal, however.

I was going to treat myself to a new computer (Mac Leopard) but will have to wait until market is more encouraging.

*Whatever that means.

This is crazy. Version 3.1.2 (5525.20.1) doesn’t do it. Really, Apple? Really?

Sadly, yes. (What do those numbers in parentheses signify, anyway?)

It is not a major inconvenience. My OS is pretty old but works find except for the Fluther links to links. Don’t sweat it. Go make a movie. Drape your flowered vines over stairways, tickle your gf or kittens. G
