Links Open in a New Window

by **TUFED6** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:30 am

Can we do it? Would people prefer it?

Discuss.

by **Fairmont888** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:32 am

just right click on the link and go "open in new window"???

by **Dansedgli** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:32 am

I would prefer this.

by **Gozza** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:38 am

Im with Fairmont888 - its shits me when a link opens in a new tab without me telling it to

by **Frost** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:38 am

Download Mozilla, change the settings to open each link in a new tab. Walla done.

PHPBB 3 does not have that functionallity I beleive

by **Steady** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:38 am

I is liking the idea.
It would prevent me from accidently clicking "save target as".
Or even worse, "open", then I have to click back and basically start over again, its a kunt.

by **TUFED6** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:44 am

I don't have time to right click, serious business

by **Frost** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:47 am

As I said try mozilla.

Cause iv just looked through the PHPBB3 control panel on another forum and it wont be that easy.

Unless john is an uber nerd who will add some sort of code into the css or even overall_header to make all <a href> have a target="new"

Don't give me excuses I want answers

by **EFFalcon** » September 3rd, 2008, 11:55 am

i'll look into it.
someone else would have made a mod i'm sure.

by **holmsy** » September 3rd, 2008, 12:03 pm

this too hard for most people? works the same in IE7.

by **Dansedgli** » September 3rd, 2008, 2:48 pm

I have a mouse at work and a brand new one at home and neither have centre buttons.

by **krisisdog** » September 3rd, 2008, 2:54 pm

Do you have a scroller? most of them work as a centre button as well.

by **Dansedgli** » September 3rd, 2008, 2:59 pm

Work one scrolls but it wont work as a button. Not sure about the one at home. I imagine it would, it cost enough!

by **TUFED6** » September 3rd, 2008, 3:08 pm

I dont have time to move my finger from the left button to any other button. Thanks.

by **Steady** » September 3rd, 2008, 3:30 pm

I have IE6 and centre button just changes windows.
So PFFT to you.
I don't see how people can not be stoked about this.
It's the new best thing about this forum.

by **krisisdog** » September 3rd, 2008, 3:37 pm

Maybe coz I've been doin it for years

My mouse is wireless/laser, but its pretty old now.
The other comps mouse is laser, but its like a budget dell POS, but the scroller still works as a clicker.

TUFED6 - you can also move your middle finger from the right button to the scroller

by **EFFalcon** » September 3rd, 2008, 3:54 pm

i'm glad TUFED6 appreciates the effort...
geez

by **TUFED6** » September 3rd, 2008, 3:57 pm

I do. Cheers mate.

Does it only work on new links? I clicked on some youtube link before and it followed the link in the existing window.

by **EFFalcon** » September 3rd, 2008, 4:00 pm

it should work on all links.
maybe something was missed.

show me an example if u find one

by **TUFED6** » September 3rd, 2008, 4:02 pm

The 'Wife caught cheating' thread. First post has a youtube link.

Its good, cause mozilla before today when you clicked a link ended up opening up in the same page, usually was annoying after you watch 6 or 7 thinks on U porn and wanna go back and reply about the video in the thread.

by **EFFalcon** » September 4th, 2008, 1:51 pm
