Competitions Open in Sam Page!!

Options
Why don’t competitions open in a new browser page? I enter a competition and have to close down the page, go back to MSE, re-sort the competitions and enter the next one. It takes HOURS to get through the list and I risk duplicating entries. All other websites open the competition on a separate new page.

    Hold down the left control key as you click the links, they should then open in a new tab. This is on PC btw, not sure about a mac (this will only work if what you're clicking are actual href links - it will depend on how the webpage was built - but give it a try!)
  • Any advice on opening in new window on iPhone? Thanks x

    I'm not an iPhone user, sorry. Try a long press to see if an option for a new tab is presented

     Press and hold on the link and pop up appears 
  • Thanks for all the suggestions. You have all just levelled up my comping xxxx wishing you all good luck and loads of wins xxxx
  • Also I highly recommend using the 'entered' button when you do enter things as it makes it less likely you'll duplicate entries later on. I don't use the 'skipped' button very often but it can be handy sometimes. Happy comping :)
