In the old Google toolbar, it was possible to view the search results in a new tab. Google toolbar is compatible with Firefox 7, so I have to use the Firefox Search Bar. However, it always gets the search results in the current tab. Can this be modified?

Valittu ratkaisu

Yes. Open a new tab and type or paste about:config into the location bar, hit enter, and hit enter again to get past the warning. Then paste browser.search.openintab into the filter box that shows, then double-click on the browser.search.openintab line to toggle it (it will switch to bold).

If you'd rather an addon just do the above for you and add a menu option for it, try this: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchontab/

Alternatively, you can type a search into the search bar and press alt+enter instead of just enter to open your search in a new tab.
