This bug is new to release 1.3 alpha and as I cannot see any reference to this specific fault being recognised or fixed in 103843. So I wish to reopen this bug until it is either fixed or a matching duplicate is shown. Thank you. Please note that there is a slightly different error if the Tabbed Browsing setting of Load links in the background is set off, in which case the second errored window loads as if it is a pop under. This bug only appears in 1.3 alpha, 1.2.1 operates correctly. Regards Paul

These links do both onClick and have a href. Thus, it's the bug of middle-/right-clicks firing onClick. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 180078 ***
