External Links - open in new window/tab
Is there a way (i can't see it in profile option) that we can make external links open in a new window ? It's killing me on both this forum and MTBS3D when using a none 3 button mouse....

Not really sure about the latest recommendations, but at some point in web development it was considered bad practice to open another tab or window from a link. It was up to the user to "right click" to open in another tab if they wanted. So the target attribute for links was not considered valid.
But I think in HTML5 it is now OK to use target attributes again. I think it would be up to the forum mods to change a setting, or implement new code to add a target attribute to links.
