: I think they are two different things. (1) did you try to open article in a new tab, with the middle-click? so you can keep both results and article open at the same time. (2) if an article title matchs exactly a search pattern it will be loaded per default... maybe that needs to be changed... [[User:Kelson|Kelson]] 19:20, 2 April 2011 (UTC)</s>

:: My laptop doesn't have middle click (most mouse touchpads don't). I tried pressing both right-left at once but that didn't work either. And even right-click is disabled, so there's no way I can open in another tab from my end. Even Ctrl+Click or Alt+Click or Shift+Click aren't working. I think I should make a new request of this.

::I second the maybe in (2). From Wikipedia for Schools perspective, most students can't be expected to know exactly what they're searching for.  Exploration needs search results more than direct jumping. With the sidebar both were happening previously, right? [[User:Nikhilsheth|Nikhilsheth]] 03:50, 28 April 2011 (UTC)
::: <s>ctrl+click works now. Link drag&drop over tabheaders works. "open in new tab" contextual menu entry works. [[User:Kelson|Kelson]] 13:46, 12 August 2011 (CEST)</s>

::: <s>This was change, for every search pattern, you get the chance in the suggestion select box to make a search, so no direct jump (last item) 13:46, 12 August 2011 (CEST)</s>


4. In English version, the tooltip for the Search in Page button is still only "Search" and it can be misleading, users might press this button at the near left of the search bar instead of the one at the far right which they should if they're searching for an article.
