hyperlinks

[the BuTch3R]

Just a small suggestion.....

All of the links within the threads (photos, links to other sites, links to other threads, etc) close the current page and open the target page immediately.
I know that most browsers have the right click > open in new window facility :Geek: , but I often forget to do this in all the excitement and end up fiddling my thumbs, waiting for the new page to load, when I could rather be spending this QUALITY time reading the rest of the thread or other threads while the link opens. :|

Any possibility of "soft-coding" links within threads to always open in a new window?

What do you guys think

We'll have ton investigate. Mean time what you could also do instead of right clicking a link, you can click the middle button on a link and this will then open it on a new tab without asking more questions. (I use Firefox)

Daar leer jy my ook iets, 'n mens is vergeet van die wielietjie knoppie - dit werk in IE ook.

Don't get me wrong, It's not the clicking (right or middle) that bothers me, it's more that by the time i realise I should've clicked a different button, it's too late. :roll:

Not a biggie though, but I'm sure I'm not alone on this one....and I have seen links open new windows on other sites, so it's definitely possible, just not sure how easy.

Understand your point but just thought might give you some help in the interim.

Fixed Up
Thanks for the suggestion, something I wanted to do years ago but then got used to right click

Remeber it will now open all links posted in posts in a new window, even those referring to this same site.

I might be mistaken but this change will only have effect on any new posts done with a hyperlink. The older ones you will still need to rightclick / middle click

Thanks Pieter.

Now just the photos. Clicking on a photo still loads an enlarged version of the photo in the current window :problem:

I feel it will be better if link opens in a new tab, not a new window. Much easier to navigate a lot of tabs than a lot of windows.

It does this yes dependent on your browser

Andre, I presume you are still using Internet Explorer? Switch to Firefox and you will enjoy the Internet much more. Get it at http://www.mozilla.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
