RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 1949999

People

(Reporter: mozilla, Unassigned)

Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:136.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/136.0

Steps to reproduce:

Type URL in address bar or type text and scroll to select/focus bookmark in address bar
Command + return

Actual results:

The URL or selected/focused bookmark in the address bar is opened in the current tab

Expected results:

The URL or selected/focused bookmark in the address bar is opened in a new, foreground tab

This is the behavior from previous versions up to 135.0.1. The change appears to have been introduced in the 136.0 release.

Command + shift + return behavior remains unchanged and works as before and as documented @ https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly

The Bugbug bot thinks this bug should belong to the 'Firefox::Address Bar' component, and is moving the bug to that component. Please correct in case you think the bot is wrong.

Component: Untriaged → Address Bar

Please check the 136 release notes, if you do not use URL canonization you can simply turn off the browser.urlbar.ctrlCanonizesURLs pref in about:config to restore the previous behavior.
