    I have an issue when browsing with firefox when i ctrl+click a link to open in a new tab the view switches to that tab even though i have firefox set not to do this. This appears to only happen on boards. I checked using internet explorer & can confirm it doesn't happen.

    Just to be clear its appears to be only on links to external sites within posts, not when i click on forum or thread titles in the menus etc.

    Morning Sentient_6,

    Thanks for letting us know - This is caused by the way we handle outbound links on Boards. We'll take a look into this issue and how we handle outbound links when we spec out a new threadview that does not run off vBulletin.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
