Opening journal articles in new window.

Click For Summary
When opening PDF files from journal articles in the Opera web browser, users may experience issues where a new PDF replaces the previously opened one instead of opening in a new window or tab. A common workaround is to right-click the download link and select "open in new window," but this option is not available for links generated by SFX Ex Libris. A suggested solution is to hold the shift key while clicking the link, which typically prompts browsers to open the link in a new window or tab. This behavior is generally applicable across various web browsers.

When I open a pdf of a journal, it opens in a new window on the web browser (Opera).

Does anyone know how to overcome this?

Thanks!
Nobahar.

I’ve spent nearly my entire life online, and witnessed AI become integrated into our lives. It’s clear that AI is apart of us now whether we like it or not, unless your a anti tech cabin lover. AI has some form of control over your life. But what I’ve seen very recently is that people are loosing their ingenuity and deciding to use AI. I feel as if it’ll bleed into STEM which is kinda has already and, every idea or thought could become fully reliant on AI. Yeah AI makes life easier but at a...
