How to make a page open in tab rather than in a new window

[theouhuios]

Hello

I am trying to customized the way the page opens when clicked while using a redirector module, so that it opens in a new tab rather than opening in a new window or else opening in the same tab.
I know that it can be done with writing a jquery script. But is there any other way?

Any idea?

A workaround I have for this is to hold down ctrl while clicking

I have found in Firefox, that using the Tab Mix plugin will enable me to open all popups as tabs in a single Firefox window. In Tab Mix options selecting Links and then changing the drop down next to "JavaScript & Popup restriction:" to "Open all popups in tabs" will result in all of the clicked links in Firefox being opened as tabs in the same Firefox window as the tab where the link resides.
