Mmmm, which link? Camilla's? Sareitha Sedai Send a noteboard - 02/09/2010 02:53:44 PM
It should not open in a new window unless your browser is weird (weird as in EVERY link opens in a new window).

Now clicking the middle mouse button (= scroll wheel) will open in a new tab in most browsers, and I do this instinctively. But that's another type of click.

If someone wants to make a link open in a new window, add target="_blank" within the link tag (so that it looks like a href="http://whatever.com" target="_blank", but with tags around)


Because it still redirects me in the current window.

Like I said though, if I open a link that's below the post (like in Mook's post) and not one that's embedded in it (like in Camilla's), it opens in a new window.
If you are from Betelgeuse, please have one of your Earth friends read what I've written before you respond. Or try concentrating harder.

Yes, that is disturbingly accurate snoopcester - 02/09/2010 11:00:31 AM 531 Views
So does the Onion constitute Ludic Parody? *NM* damookster - 02/09/2010 05:10:03 PM 276 Views
More satire, I think Camilla - 02/09/2010 05:23:17 PM 489 Views
When I click on a link embedded in a post Sareitha Sedai - 02/09/2010 02:14:35 PM 475 Views
It's a browser option, not one of the site here *NM* ironclad - 02/09/2010 02:33:59 PM 220 Views
Really? Sareitha Sedai - 02/09/2010 02:39:19 PM 459 Views
Are you sure? snoopcester - 02/09/2010 02:41:39 PM 528 Views
Yeah, that's what I figure too, because some links open in a separate tab and others don't for me. *NM* Legolas - 02/09/2010 02:45:33 PM 230 Views
Try clicking this link again, with the left mouse button Floffe - 02/09/2010 02:50:43 PM 468 Views
Mmmm, which link? Camilla's? Sareitha Sedai - 02/09/2010 02:53:44 PM 486 Views
Yes Floffe - 02/09/2010 03:05:11 PM 475 Views
Did you edit her link to add the target=_blank part? Sareitha Sedai - 02/09/2010 04:43:16 PM 492 Views
How would Floffe do that? Only Camilla or an admin can do that, and an admin wouldn't. *NM* Legolas - 02/09/2010 05:27:53 PM 212 Views
Well Floffe could be an admin for all I know But I thought he was talking to me Sareitha Sedai - 02/09/2010 06:48:41 PM 442 Views
My reply was directed at Jens, as he seems to have something funky going on *NM* Floffe - 02/09/2010 05:56:55 PM 223 Views
not on mine snoopcester - 02/09/2010 03:00:18 PM 479 Views
I have no idea what you're talking about Floffe - 02/09/2010 03:06:21 PM 472 Views
And there was me thinking you were of some use snoopcester - 02/09/2010 03:12:16 PM 491 Views
Mine too; clicking the link with the scrollwheel doesn't open anything. *NM* Sareitha Sedai - 02/09/2010 04:40:57 PM 207 Views
He means what happens when you click anywhere else on the screen with the middle button. Legolas - 02/09/2010 03:48:30 PM 471 Views
I think that is a setting... jh - 02/09/2010 05:41:09 PM 453 Views
Ah, right, that one Floffe - 02/09/2010 05:58:58 PM 394 Views
The two aren't mutually exclusive. Legolas - 02/09/2010 06:24:29 PM 537 Views
still, that's another setting. but who wants the scrollything anyway? *NM* jh - 02/09/2010 06:31:08 PM 193 Views
It might be snoopcester - 02/09/2010 06:38:09 PM 540 Views
Hah, didn't know that! ironclad - 03/09/2010 08:16:32 AM 482 Views
Middle click (scroll wheel, that is) should open it in a new window/tab *NM* Floffe - 02/09/2010 02:52:07 PM 193 Views
I do that fairly instinctively these days for all links *NM* Stephen - 02/09/2010 04:20:45 PM 202 Views
Me too Camilla - 02/09/2010 05:21:34 PM 847 Views
i think that guy's sister posted the same thought process on my ex-wife's facebook page moondog - 02/09/2010 09:10:05 PM 526 Views
This is one of those instances where it's less funny because it's true *NM* BlackAdder - 02/09/2010 10:14:15 PM 203 Views
Yes. *NM* Camilla - 02/09/2010 10:51:17 PM 208 Views
I find it ironic that... MalkierKnight - 02/09/2010 10:58:24 PM 669 Views
I like your reply. snoopcester - 02/09/2010 11:06:29 PM 494 Views
Well... MalkierKnight - 03/09/2010 04:25:13 AM 595 Views
For me it was from years of watching how muslims that I have worked with were treated. Tashmere - 03/09/2010 05:24:38 AM 493 Views
I'll agree MalkierKnight - 03/09/2010 07:50:42 PM 656 Views
Yes, what Tashmere said BlackAdder - 03/09/2010 05:35:39 AM 622 Views
You mean the three replies that relate to the contents of the link? snoopcester - 03/09/2010 10:29:41 AM 525 Views
I'll quote.. MalkierKnight - 03/09/2010 08:01:49 PM 742 Views
See? You can't find it can you? snoopcester - 04/09/2010 02:42:02 PM 565 Views
