    Default "Visit xxxxx hompage" not opening in new page

    Hi,

    Just a suggestion but is it possible to have it so when you click on a users name and click the "Visit xxxxx hompage" link that it opens in a new window/tab?

    Its just frustrating when you click on the link and you lose the A1 Business page you was on.

    I have tried the Ctrl + clicking the link but no difference.

    just a thought

    Tom

    A target="_blank" on the link would do it - not sure where in the templates it lives - but will look into it

    In the meantime, you could right click the link and select to open in a new tab or window

    or if you are using FF and have s scroll wheel (aahhh I just love that scroll wheel)
    you can press onto it and it should open any links in a new tab/window.
