[gui-talk] IE 7 & Tabs

Actually, when IE 7 opens, if you hit Shift-F6, you'll be in the 
conventional view, i.e., on the links. If you go down to the first link 
and *then* hit tab, you can tab as normal. Any time you get into the 
address bar, search list and the like, just hit F6 or Shift-F6 till you 
get back to the page itself.

Hi Tammy --
IE7 doesn't create new browser windows when opening links unless 
explicitly
told to. To go around to the various tabs within a window type 
control+tab
or control+shift+tab.  To go to other windows, as always, use alt+tab
There is a way to configure IE7 to revert back to the behavior in IE6, 
but I
don't know where that option is.
One funny thing I've noticed is that when I try to open any link in 
which
the html specifies it be put in a new window, IE7 emits 2 gunshot sout
sounds and ignores the command.   I have to hit alt+enter explicitly to 
open
that link.
Oh well.

I now have IE 7 and am wondering, is there a way to reconfigure it so I 
can
tab through links like in IE 6?  When I tab I am off into all kinds of 
other
items.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
