As a user who splits time between PCs and my MacBook Pro, I have an issue (thanks to Microsoft) that I need to correct. Brief history follows...
Years ago I built a web page that I use as my home page with all of my common links (my bank, forums, local news, etc...). I built that page with Microsoft Word, placing hyperlinked logos from the sites in question. It was fine for years, but with one issue...I normally open many pages at a time into tabs so I can then read them at my leisure. Most browsers let you do that by either via a "wheel-click" or a "right-click" "open in new tab". Problem is that Word-built web pages didn't allow the latter option (wrong context menu would appear, lacking the "open in new tab" option), But, so long as the wheel click option remained I was typically OK (track pads were an issue).
So finally I took the time to try and fix this by using the "right" software. I had MS Publisher on my Office disk so I tried that. Everything is now totally messed up, and the problems vary from one browser to another (i.e. Firefox, Safari, Chrome, IE 10). Web research has taught me that Publisher turns out non-standard web pages. Grrr...
So, I'm looking a for some code (preferably free because my needs are simple and rare) that will allow me to restore normal web-page link behavior. I've have virtually no skill or knowledge in HTML coding so looking for a drag-drop or graphical interface.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
