Description Killiondude 2013-07-18 23:38:45 UTC 
Current behavior on Special:Nearby is to load the target page no matter if you right- or left-click on the target. This affects both mobile and desktop browsers. Use-cases would be if you wanted to open in a new tab while keeping the nearby list open.
Comment 1 Jon 2013-07-19 00:08:24 UTC 
I just tried this on mobile and it works fine

What browser are you using? Are you using beta or stable mode of the site?
Comment 2 MZMcBride 2013-07-19 00:09:59 UTC 
I believe he's using <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Nearby>.
Comment 3 Killiondude 2013-07-19 00:15:59 UTC 
Both URLs do the same on mobile (using stock android browser and latest Chrome which I believe just skins the stock app) and desktop Chrome and FF22.

The right-click works, but loads target in background when it shouldn't.
Comment 4 Jon 2013-07-19 01:55:05 UTC 
OK this seems to be on a desktop browser but does not effect a mobile browser. Thanks for clarifying. I believe this is due to the preview mode in the beta of this site.
Comment 5 Killiondude 2013-07-19 02:12:28 UTC 
Jon, this is *indeed* on a mobile browser as well. I have a Galaxy s4 running android version 4.2.2.

Comment 9 Helder 2013-08-21 23:33:43 UTC 
What about middle click and CTRL+click?
Comment 10 Jon 2013-08-21 23:44:43 UTC 
What exactly is your experience when you middle click or ctrl click? These seem to work fine for me now.. are you on mobile or desktop? If on mobile which version of the site are you running - beta, alpha or stable?
Comment 11 Helder 2013-08-21 23:50:35 UTC 
I'm using Google Chrome 29.0.1547.57 under Linux Mint, and when I try to open a link in a new tab using the middle button or CTRL+click, I get the target page loaded both in the current tab (Special:Nearby) and in a new tab. I don't want it to change the current page. I tested on English Wikipedia:

Comment 12 Jon 2013-08-22 00:01:40 UTC 
Weird it seems to only effect the desktop site and on middle click - not entirely sure why. I've opened a new bug to report this (bug 53188).
