I am somewhat of a news freak. It seems that I visit cnn, drudge, reuters, etc. every morning before work. I use Firefox as my main browser, and usually cmd-click links to open in new tabs. I have searched google for this, as well as the forum, and I am not sure if it has ever surfaced as a favorable trick.
Anyhow, I'd like to go to these sites (well, it could work for others that I frequent, like forums and shopping sites) and select more than one link to open in new tabs, instead of cmd-clicking each story or review. Like right now, cnn has about 8 major stories/links on top, and I'd like to select them all and have them all open in new tabs. Its obviously not in the prefs, unless I have overlooked it several times.
Anyone have a way around this? Ever found a need for this?
Thanks

I think there's a Firefox extension that does exactly that, but I can't remember the name. So what did you do to get your desired effect?

Well so far all I figured out is to optionclick a folder containing bookmarks and selecting open in tabs... Its pretty darn close to what I wanted to achieve, however, I'm still trying to figure out a workaround so that I do not have to make bookmarks first.
EDIT: Ok, finally!! Instead of a workaround, I downloaded an extenion called 'open selected links'... Thanks for the tip ghporter!
