Mar 7, 2009 4:19pm Antagony User	First of all, I just want to say how much I love this script! Being forced by Google Image Search to wade through the originating sites' (often massive) page loads to get at pictures has long been a bugbear of mine, so this is a real Godsend. Thanks, ulrich! Now, what would make this almost perfect script just that little bit better for me would be to make the links it creates open in a new tab by default. I suspect this will be a trivial edit but I know less than nothing about JavaScript coding, or I'd have a go at it myself. Any help will be greatly appreciated. -Ant

Maybe I could add a second link, next to the current one, which opens a tab (window). BTW: Did you know that you can open a link in a new tab by clicking it with you mouse wheel, yes simply press the mouse wheel (supported by almost every up-to-date browser)? regards, ulrich
