If i command-click on a URL inside of a mail in gmail, the link allways opens in a new window. It should open it in a new tab instead

Gmail uses JavaScript to force links to open in new web views. Whether these web views are in a new tab or a new window is a decision made by Safari, not WebKit. If you would like the ability to force these sorts of links to open new tabs rather than windows I would encourage you to file a feature request on Safari at

. Closing as INVALID as this is not a WebKit bug.

ok, reported it as Bug ID# 5685342 (IMO the JS part should only execute on a left-click, not a command-click).
