    Hi everyone,I just use terminal set safari open new link in new tab instead of new window-- defaults write com.apple.Safari TargetedClicksCreateTabs -bool true
    things become good,but after setting,every new tab will be activated after i click,and the preference doesn't work.Is there anyway to open tab in background not foreground when i click?

    you don't have to use defaults write to d that.. it just edits the plist for you...

    if you launch safari and just go into preferences, look at the Tabs tab... checkmark to open in new tabs... anything you check there, the bottom then explains how all the shortcut buttons will work for those options.
