open URL in a new page.

Permalink
Hello, I have linked my web site to another web site and I'd like concrete to open a new window (or Tab) when the link is clicked.

Where can I set this in concrete? I haven't find it yet and also I have no idea of how that may have been named... Should be easy to do though...

Thanks for your help

You want to add target="_blank" to your link,

you can do it using the text editor by choosing the link and selecting teh little chain icon, then in the target select box choose, external.

Hiya,

Can you please give me an example of the syntax, let's say I want an image to link to yahoo.com. I know how to add a external link to the image...

Where would I put the target="_blank"? For instance my link would be :http://www.yahoo.com (???)

Thanks

Choose your image or text and apply:

<a title="Opens a new window" href="http://concrete5.org/" target="_blank">Concrete5 CMS</a>


Or from the content editor select image or text, choose link (the chain icon), type in link address and select 'Open in new window (_blank)

Thanks helping me figuring out that I needed to use the content editor. Indeed with the content editor, this operation is very simple.

Cheers
