Open in New Tabs von grad13

Some sites intercept your clicks and navigate with their own JavaScript, so the browser's built-in "Cmd+click opens a new tab" silently stops working. Open in New Tabs restores it — on the sites you choose.

What it does

• Cmd+click → new background tab on your registered sites. Your current tab stays where it is.
• Handles plain links the site suppresses, and JavaScript-driven navigations where the destination URL only exists after the site's own click handler runs (e.g. e-book bookshelf viewers).
• X / Twitter DMs: Cmd/Ctrl/middle-click a conversation in the messages list to open that chat in its own tab (works out of the box, no setup).

How to use

1. Click the toolbar icon to open the options page.
2. Add a site domain (e.g. ebookjapan.yahoo.co.jp). A leading www. is ignored; subdomains are included.
3. Reload tabs already open on that site.
4. Cmd+click a link or item — it opens in a new background tab.

Permissions, in plain words

• Access your data for all websites: the content script must be able to load on any site you might register. It only acts on domains in your list.
• webRequest / webRequestBlocking: to catch a JavaScript-driven navigation, cancel it, and reopen the same URL in a background tab.
• storage: to save your site list, locally in your browser.

Privacy: no accounts, no tracking, no data collection. Nothing is sent to any server.

By design, SPA-only route changes (pushState), hash-only navigation, modals, and non-http(s) targets are out of scope.
