Hi Anthony,

Are you using OSX with Safari by any chance? If so, click on:

Safari > Preferences > Tabs > Open pages in tabs instead of windows > Never.

Now try again.

This is a browser function. In Chrome, opening in a new tab can be done by control-click, or right-click and select "open link in new tab" from the context menu that pops up.

The method may differ if you use a different browser - check your browser's user guide.
