This extension enables a better navigation experience for the study information systems (ÕIS) of Tallinn University of Technology (TalTech) and Tallinn University (TLÜ). By default, the links in these systems cannot be opened in a new tab because they rely on JavaScript functions in their href attributes. This extension makes it possible to open those links in new tabs, improving usability.
- Open links in new tabs: Allows users to open links in the ÕIS systems in new browser tabs.
- Simple toggle: The extension can be easily enabled or disabled with a single click on the extension icon (refresh needed).
- Go to the Chrome Web Store page of the extension.
- Click on the "Add to Chrome" button.
- Download the extension's zip file from the Releases page and extract it.
- Open the Extension Management page by navigating to chrome://extensions.
- The Extension Management page can also be opened by clicking on the Chrome menu, hovering over "Extensions", and selecting "Manage Extensions".
- Enable Developer Mode by clicking the switch next to "Developer mode".
- Click the "Load unpacked" button and select the extension directory.
- The extension should now be installed and visible in the extensions list.
- Go to the Firefox Add-ons page of the extension.

manifest.jsonfile). - The extension should now be installed and visible in the extensions list.
Once the extension is installed, it will automatically modify the links on the TalTech and TLÜ ÕIS websites, allowing them to be opened in new tabs. You can toggle the extension on or off by clicking on the extension icon in your browser's toolbar. The icon will be colored when the extension is enabled and grayed out when it is disabled.
- Enabled: The extension is active and links can be opened in a new tab by right- or middle-clicking them.
- Disabled: The extension is inactive and links will behave as usual.
This extension requires the following permissions:
- storage: Allows the extension to store and retrieve data (such as enabled/disabled state).
- scripting: Enables the extension to inject scripts into the pages of TalTech and TLÜ ÕIS for link modification.
- tabs: Allows the extension to interact with browser tabs to detect when a page has finished loading.
