julieshapiro on "Links--new page vs. new tab"

Hi

When I add links I get that question about "target" and there is an option for same page/tab vs. new page/tab. I always choose the "new" option. But sometimes it is "new tab" and sometimes it is "new page." Why does one or the other come up? The reason I wonder is that in general my preference is "new tab" but if I'm only offered "new page" is there any way to get there?

I use Coraline, if that's important to know.
