I don't think so. This is just shitty website design on the part of the website developers. They aren't links, they are elements with click handlers on them, so the browser doesn't know what to open.

On some websites it works if you click one part of such an element, eg. the text.

I think if I middle click there, firefox should duplicate the tab and click there. Something to work aroubd this annoyance somehow. I intended to open like 20 elements in that list in each new tab. This was very annoying!

In the end I just gave up! And didn't buy anything
