Obviously I have failed to communicate what I meant: by "this site" I
meant the site to which the link pointed. And *this* posting is from
Forte Agent, which I use for all my net forum communications. I did
specify that IE 8 was the subject of my concern.

I fail to understand why this key combination answers my question -
why does IE 8 require my manual intervention when I have already
indicated in the options that I want all shortcuts on which I click to
open in a new tab, as it worked so well in IE 7. Thank you for your
response. However my question is still unanswered.
