IE7: Targetting searches and navigations to a new tab

February 27, 2007

I use 2 different techniques to do a new search in a new tab.

I’m excited about method A, which I rediscovered again today.

A) Alt-click the search button or press alt-enter

1) change focus to search box by pressing ctrl-e
2) Type your term into the search box in the top right of IE7.
3a) Alt-Click the search button.
   or
3b) Alt-Enter

A new tab is opened with your new search result

B) Open tab manually, then do search

1) open a new tab by pressing ctrl-t
2) change focus to search box by pressing ctrl-e
3) type in term and press enter

A new tab is opened with your new search result

 

Fun With Links

These you likely already know…

Shift-click on a link (IE4 or later)

Opens that link in a new window

Ctrl-click on a link (IE7)

Opens that link in a new tab

 

Targetting new tabs:

I don’t like the fact that you use Alt in technique A, but use Ctrl when you click a link.  I raised that issue with the IE team during IE7 development.  They explained the reason…but it didn’t sink in…

Update: later the same day, while searching for a different topic, I found my old related blog post.  Ok, perhaps just blogging something doesn’t make it easy to find…

    信是個富有挑戰的工作，忙碌、刺激、激情。最后的結局總是有人哭，有人笑。在徵信社工作的幾年時間里，我感悟到很多生活的無奈與殘酷。閑暇時我去中古车市

    的婚姻也許已經亮起了紅燈。每天陪著星際客戶喝著咖啡，似乎是一件很爽的事，可是她們的眼淚比咖啡要苦的多。常常聽他們說嘈雜的燈光音響麻痹著他們的神
    經，讓他們過著醉生夢死的生活。其實，誰不渴望幸福美滿的愛情。沒有團體制服不了那些玩弄生活、玩弄感情的人，于是，徵信社應運而生。這不知道是人們的福
    音還是不幸，希望天下的每一個人都歡樂著、幸福著。坐月子是女人一生的大事，女人可以为了襁褓中的婴儿放弃一直引用的红酒而吃月子餐，这时候的女人是幸福
    而伟大的。有人歡喜有人優，有人狂笑有人大哭，我不想看到女人太多的眼淚，辭職后，我做了一位安靜、平和的室內設計師。虽然上下班没有了车接车送，但我租
