Sitepoint Window Question

[knux]

I was wondering if their is a way to change the settings in SitePoint so that when you click a link that is posted say via the Marketplace, it opens in a new window? I find myself opening lots of new pages through here then exiting the window that I wanted to be in.

I may be wrong, but I do not think there is a setting to make all links do this by default, but in IE you can right click a link and choose "open in new window" in FF you can do teh same and choose a new window or tab and also you can use the mouse scroll wheel (if you have one) and click a link and open a new tab. (though this may be a extension)

I am unsure of Opera's features as to opening new windows and tabs but I am sure it also has this ability

Hope it helps

Shift+click in IE or ctrl+click in FireFox (hopefully it's default setting) - new tab.

You can do this without installing an extension.

Shift + click = Window [IE/FF]
Ctrl + click = Tab [FF]

I can center click with out any ctrl + ... just the scroll wheel. I have some extension installed. I think it is tab clicking options

Sorry, I think my post may have been confusing.

I can click the scroll wheel which then opens the link in a new tab. I didn't have to install any extensions to be able to do this.

I just said those other options incase you didn't have a mouse with a scroll wheel on it.

Same here, no extension and the scroll wheel opens the link in a new tab... it's a great feature. I use it often.

Thanks a lot guys! Im currently in school useing their IE default but I use Opera at home. I will try the scrollwheel thing, and if not just click open in new window.

If you have a private user area with a small bit of hard-drive space you can install a portable version of firefox or opera on it
