press it button problem in firefox

  • i’m finding that the press it link when dragged to my toolbar in firefox opens the new window behind my existing window, so sometimes i nevr see it and forget i was going to use it

    the link works fine when it’s part of HTML on a page, but that’s not as handy.

    i assume this is a firefox thing, i’ve tried messing around with focus() and bringtofront() but i’m not that good with javascript so i didn’t really get anywhere… if anyone can think of a way to hack it i’d be most appreciative.

  • You could install something like Tab Extensions that force new windows to open in a new tab.

    I have not been able to get it to open in a new tab, only in a new window and I’ve tried. Just learn to look down at your button bar for all the windows that are open or when you close your main browser, you will see it anyway.

    I haven’t been able to find a javascript that deals with Firefox’s open in a tab.

    I use Press It constantly and I love it, so I get used to it opening a new window. I tend to go through my feeds and open any page that looks like a potential bit of good info in a new tab, so I can have 10-30 tabs open in one window. If you have “too many” tabs open, Firefox shoves the last tabs off the screen until you remove some tabs. So having Press It open in a new window doesn’t bother me in the least. I can then click on it and fill in the info and save it as a draft or for save and move on to the next subject.
