Inconsistent browser tab behavior

[Rozovian]

Cmd-clicking on remix titles, artist names, dates or sources in the music database, or anything in the latest remixes box, which normally opens the link in a new tab behind the current one, now _also_ opens it in the current tab. I get two tabs with the same page. It makes it difficult to open a bunch of links from one page in separate tabs. This doesn't happen with all links on the site, or even in the music database when clicking on game names. I haven't noticed the site doing that before.

What browser are you using? What version? What operating system are you on? Do you have any browser plugins/addons installed?

I've noticed the same thing for months. I use Chrome on Windows 7 and I keep the browser up to date, so I'm always using the latest version as soon as I can update it. Right now, it's 39.0.2171.99

OSX 10.9.5, tested with both Safari and Firefox. I've got adblock and some other plugins but I don't think there's a lot of overlap between the plugin sets besides adblock.

We're definitely aware of this, but thanks for bringing it up again. It's a Chrome thing, and this doesn't happen in other browsers. djp may be able to explain what's changed in Chrome but I'm not sure if he has plans to work around this issue vs. working on OCR v6. IMO, it's ENOUGH of a UX annoyance that we should see if it can be fixed.

Safari and Firefox are Chrome now.

Sounds lovely. A couple months ago, we tested it on other browsers and it was Chrome only. Looks like djp's gotta address it as a broader issue.

My thought is to leave it, given that V6.0 is in the works. It's an annoyance, but easy enough to work around once you experience it.

djp brought this to my attention earlier, and I hacked together a fix for this issue. This should be fixed live sometime this week.

Fixed. But fingers crossed it can be resolved soon.

Well, Dave sicced me on it, and I tested the required fix live, so I'm pretty certain it works .
