Great!it should be the standard behaviour for chrome! the only problem is the one described by Marcos. If you fix this I'll pay you a beer:)
issue: other than English, searching of other language won't be in background tab. That's why it only sometimes functions properly
Works as expected. Brilliant workaround for an annoying issue.
Stops working several times a day; Going to the options page for an update is starting to be too much of a hassle when having to do it so often. Please do something about this!
It doesnt seem to flicker anymore in version 19.0.1084.56 .. woo. Thank you Pitmairen for seeing a need and filling it for me.
Read the review by Chief Badmoon if you are having problems with the url needing to be fixed several times a day. Mark it as helpful so others see it too!
The fact that "Search Google for" doesn't open in a background tab is something about Chrome that has annoyed me for a long time. This extension fixes that and has made my life just a little better.
Beautiful. The only thing I would comment, is that I get a blink upon context search, as if the search tab actually came forward, and the original tab were quickly restored. A bit of a bummer. But all in all, great extension, thanks!
