Use drag and drop to make Safari's history more usable
Authored by: Fofer on Dec 14, '03 11:49:50AM

I just open the History page and command-click on links. They all start opening up as seperate tabs in the background. (If I'm sure I just command-click a whole bunch.) Then I can browse through each one, looking for the page I was interested in...

Yes, command-clicking on items in history certainly opens in the item in a new tab (I assume with tabbed-browsing enabled) and I use it everytime I have to get back my pages when Safari crashes.

I've been command-clicking for so many months now... I guess I never thought that others may not have figured it out.

It certainly pays to experiment and use the command button when doing regular tasks (like when you want to open the page you are looking at in a new tab, so instead of copying the url then opening a new window/tab then pasting and pressing return, it is so much easier to just hit command+L to go to the address bar and press command+enter and the url opens automatically in a new tab).
