TabSubmit Basic Firefox

TabSubmit Basic

Makes forms open in new tabs if you're holding down a meta key while you click.

Features & Capabilities

TabSubmit Basic is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to improve your browsing productivity by enabling forms to open in new tabs. When you hold down a meta key such as Cmd or Ctrl while clicking on any form input, the form's target is set to _blank, ensuring it opens in a new tab or window. This behavior depends on your browser's settings for handling new windows.

This extension is a minimalist rewrite of the now unmaintained TabSubmit and SubmitToTab tools, crafted to provide a seamless and hassle-free experience. Perfect for users who frequently engage with multiple forms, TabSubmit Basic facilitates multitasking by preventing interruptions in your current tab. Developed out of a practical need, it offers a simple yet effective solution to managing form submissions across tabs.

Is TabSubmit Basic Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

TabSubmit Basic requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
