I've been using this code for opening a link in a new window: CODE <a href="" target="_blank"> but I was wondering if there was something similar for opening a link in a new tab. Thanks. Sadly there isn't, no. Although good browsers (Op, IE, Safari, Chrome, Konqueror, etc) will open a new tab anyway, think there's only 1 that doesn't There's not even some browser-specific Javascript that will open a new tab, either, which kindof sucks.

Can anyone answer to that?~~ Edit it sometimes does that This post has been edited by firebolt: 24 Jun, 2009 - 01:12 AM

I always middle-click links anyway, so they open in a new background tab
