TARGET='_blank'
Where do I put code to have my links open in a new window in GLinks 3.3? I am using Joomla 1.5 Wrapper to create my design and I am able to use some of the features for blogging and such. Hopefully a plugin to login to Joomla will come along so we can use all the features and modules with our users. But for now it is an easy way to give a good design simply. But with the wrapper it opens the links in wrapper so it is no good. You can see at http://scatteredclouds.com/bestclouds/index.php?option=com_wrapper&view=wrapper&Itemid=53 . I just started so it has all the default info in Joomla.

Hi,

Check out link.html, and look for the <a href= bit - then add a target="_blank" into there (I thought it had that in by default, so maybe you removed it at some point?)

Cheers

Hi Andy

I opened up Gossamer Links 3.3 Admin and looked for <a href= bit in link.html and could not locate it so copied to my html editor and did a find and did not bring back anything. Am I missing something?
I had not changed or modified anything in this file that I can remember. Just started a few days ago.

<div id="l<%ID%>" class="linklisting">

<h4 class="linktitle">

Hi,

You really can't see it? Tongue

Code:
<%if detailed_url and isValidated eq 'Yes'%><a href="<%detailed_url%>">

..and:

Code:
<a href="<%config.db_cgi_url%>/jump.cgi?ID=<%ID%>">

Cheers

Thanks worked like a charm!

Are you ever going to be looking at a plugin to include in Joomla as a part of it?
I can use as a wrapped item but it does not really work when you run a site map or when the site is spidered.

I think you have something similar in wordpress.

Thanks again

Dave

Hi,

I'm afraid a Joomla plugin isn't really something I'd look at I'm afraid (I dont really like PHP ;))
