Make Safari Open all Links in Same Tab

Question

I have seen (and am using) the "hack" to make Safari open links in a new tab that would normally open in a new window, but now what I am looking for is a way to make links that should open in a new window open in the same window and tab, and only open a new one when I tell it to.

Solution

This Greasemonkey (GreaseKit is the port Safari) script will accomplish "all links in same window/tab" functionality: http://naruzo.vox.com/library/post/greasekit-script-to-open-all-links-in--same--tab-killtargets.html

I am not looking for how to open links in a new tab. I am looking for how to make the default behaviour for all links to be open in the same window/tab, like how most links act, however when a link is set to open in a new window/tab (<a target="some_target">) to open in the same tab, as though that had not been set.

Oh, that's too bad

I actually ended up writing a similar script: userscripts.org/scripts/show/72994 Thanks though
