Take that stupid new window openers...

I am always frustrated at those stupid webpages that insist on opening new content in a new window or tab each time, I'm looking at you Pubmed. So I found the tweak in firefox (about:config), to change Browser.link.open_newwindow. I changed the value to 1 and problems are more or less solved. Not that I expect this will interest many people, I just want to make a note of it so I don't forget and can change my other computers with this setting.

That is all.

When you click on a link that would have forced open another tab or window, instead it is forced to open in the same tab as where you clicked the link. Its a small detail but I like it.
