Dave another request!

Hello your neighborly pest here. I was wondering when we get links in posts, could you possibly make it so that they open in a new window automatically? I am one who always right clicks and opens in a new window. But some might find it easier to look at the link and refer back to the original message without having to use the back button. Just thought I would ask. Trying to make things easier for everyone but you...lol
Thanks
Holly

Holly,

Try holding down the shift key when you click. Does that work?

Dave

kewl!!!!!!! I didn't know that!!!!!!!!!1

for me being in netscape it wants to save it. I am sure it does it in IE, which I use from time to time when netscape gets to be the pain in the butt it usually is. But like I said, I always right click on the link and open link in new window. :) Mostly looking out for others here. ANd for those of us who are lazy....lol
THanks for the superbly fast reply. Like always you are right on top of everything :)

Indeed, you are right that Netscape Navigator for Windows does not appear to have a magic "hold and click" to open in a new window.

How incredibly annoying.

Well, the reason why I don't have it default to open a new window is because I really dislike when other websites do that to me. I would prefer to have control of my own browser windows, and popups are such are the worst possible thing a webmaster can do to me. If figure that if I want the link opened in another window, I know how to do that myself. If I want it in the same window, I'll just click it regularly.

This was brought up once many months ago, and that was the answer I gave then. The majority agreed with me, so I left it as that. I would like to make it a preference option on a per-user basis, but I fear that, with so many links on DG, it would cause a serious "bogging down" of the server's resources.

A lengthy explanation! :)

Dave thats fine, and believe me I understand. Was a thought and I'm not gonna runaway just because you won't do it...lol Interesting how Netscape and IE are so different. If IE had a better mail program I would use that. But I like Netscapes mail better.
Anyhow, Thank you for answering my question and I understand.
