Opera opens two tabs when clicking on url's

English Applications

I’ve asked this on Opera’s forum also with no replies yet.

When ever I click on a url link, Opera insists on opening two additional identical tabs over what is already there. This happens whether Opera is open already or has to be started from scratch. The link could be in KMail, Akregator or even a link on an applications About box, it makes no difference.

I have set Opera up as the default web browser and I am using the following command “opera %u”

I am using Opera 10.10 build 4742, KDE 4.3.5. Any ideas?

are you double clicking on the url?

Nope, I make sure that I don’t.

Try a new .opera profile, just rename the current one to preserve you data in there ( Eg; .opera_old)

Tried that and it did not work. Even tried using Konqueror, Firefox and Chromium as the default browser, but I still had the same results.

Ok a little more testing has revealed the fix.

Looking at my default applications settings, specifically the browser part I had “insert_browser %u” (no quotes). Removing the %u fixed the problem.

Why is this?

Thanks for your suggestions by the way.
