Is it possible to open links in a new tab inside Google Chrome without loading them? And instead, that it would wait for you to manually go to the tab to start loading ? (same philosophy as what Firefox, I suppose. Firefox does this when you open it and it starts where you left off, loading only the first-tab/last-loaded-tab)
Please let me know if there is a way to do that in Google Chrome, either by editing options or by the use of an extension you know off, that would be helpful.
Yes, this should be sort-of possible, but it's ugly and you still have to load something.
Basically, you need a bare-bones page that has JavaScript to detect whether or not the page has focus. You can use the code samples here to determine that: Is there a way to detect if a browser window is not currently active?
Once the page has focus, you can redirect to the actual page. This is messy. Don't do it, unless you have a really good reason. Your users will hate you for it.
