how to get a new window to open when clicking a link?
-
i’m ursing Opera
would be grt to have a new window open each time i click on a link
and
especially when bloggers click on any of my links -

The bit of code to add when making a link open in a new window is:
<a target="new" href="http://theurlgoeshere.com"> -

need to work out a way so it it reads as text! -
If I wanted to leave a link to my blog so that it would open in a new window, I would write it like this:
<a target="new" href="http://fracas.wordpress.com">Here is a link to my blog</a>It would then look like this, and open in a new window. Try it and see. Click it.

My advice would be to ignore the HTML editor. On the edit page in the visual editor, click on the link to select it, click on the Link icon, and in the drop-down menu select “Open in New Window”.

a fraction clearer to read the html codes in my test blog!

raincoaster!
ureeka!
i didn’t see your entry so was beavering away for an hr or so seeing how i could put all the codes up on the support post!
sorted
thanxglad that’s over
nifty little drop down menue
never seen it before – is it part of the new bells and whistles?and i’ve discovered how to get Opera to do the same – open another tab
love opera
have just discovered i can open as many windows as i like!
i new i could have as many tabs as i liked but it got a little confusing especially as a new tab wouldn’t open up when i hit a link
i hope this gets simpler as i’m not sure i can put in the time i have been!
cheers
and thanx for the rescue!have you discovered when the WP are up and about – they don’t use internet time
and they don’t say where they are on the planet. they are
americentric!
i have to guess you’re in the western part of the planet [GMT that is]
