No, I know this is not so because I always check to see if that is what the site did;
There is no new window opened;
Hang on let me try to duplicate it and I’ll get back to you guys with a site

Let me do this,
Because those sites are paid secure sites,
I’ll have to look for a public site that I can duplicate the example.

Can you give a specific "origin page" URL and what to click through to where you get stuck after being sent there?

Speaking of that,
I often encounter sites that “alt+left arrow” doesn’t work at all;
This especially happens in legal research websites such as lexis and westlaw;

Re: does a link leave a site?
Also, if a link does shift you out of the site you were in, all it takes is a click of the Back button in your browser to go straight back to the page you just left, provided you haven't browsed

Then look at the link. If you're in the site xxx.com, and the link itself shows a domain that's anything other than xxx.com, then you will leave the site. There is no other way to know this,

I just want to know if a link is going to take me to an entirely new site. Sometimes I prefer to stay on the same site because I'm already familiar with it.

The problem with an actual mouse is that we may move it off the item while moving to it.
Some use the right button on a touch

If you're really suspicious about a link then submit it for analysis on virustotal.com.
As to whether it takes you out of a give site or not, there's nothing necessarily suspicious about a link if it
