Script Summary: v0.1.0.2 - Open links in new tab by keeping the left mouse button down for half a second



I browse a lot on my laptop. Since my laptop has a touchpad without a middle mouse button I need to right click links and then select "Open link in new tab". Not a big deal really, but I would like to be able to open new tabs easier.

This script opens a new tab when you keep the left mouse button down for a while.

Update 2006-02-21: I know that you could use Ctrl + Left click in Firefox to open links in a new tab. Since I can't use my left arm fully the Ctrl key isn't really an option for me.
