Admin: New Link Behavior

I just changed all links on the site to open a new window rather than replace the window. This should help a bit with performance in not having to wait for the site to reload every time you hit back from visiting one of the links. Thanks goes to mpeake for the suggestion.

    Hah! That was pretty funny. Just the thought of people sending stuff in so they can troll on it. Hilarious.

    You are welcome! Thanks for the Andromeda!

    :)

    How about a PDA friendly version too? I often visit on my PDA but because of the amount of content on the main page sometimes loading times are a bit slow. Opera mini and Netfront seem to be the most popular PDA browsers, would it be possible to have a browser detect facility? Then maybe just the newest 20 items load if PDA browser is detected?

    I don't have a clue if that is feasible though :)

    But anyway, what Mr Peake said great site Mr Matrix sir!

    but...it doesn't work! i clicked on the comment link and didn't get a new window!

    btw...that's what a tabbed browser is for - right click - open in new tab

    I'm on a Mac so I've gotten used to splat-clicking everything on every page...

    Yeah, I said "splat." Got a problem? Now we kung-fu fight!

    Well, that's as good as it's gonna get. : ) It does work for links in the body of posts. It's a hack I found in the Blogger help forums, and yes everyone has equal influence. There is no setting in blogger for this otherwise it probably would have happened sooner. I just I happened to find the hack this time around.
