Links open in existing window

Postby Hebden » Thu Apr 16, 2009 9:51 am

Hi All,

Not sure if this is just me but before the site upgrades links in posts opened in a whole new browser when clicked. Now they open in the existing browser and thus take me away from BNA. I usually just right click and "open in new tab" but didn't used to have to. It has to do with the default "target" tag for the links added to posts. I am sure you can make a global change somewhere.

Cheers,
Mark

Thanks inp, I wouldn't have thought a code change would have been needed at least not a time consuming one. Looks like pretty shiny forum software to me.

Oh well, guess they get to it when they get to it.
