Hola,

thanks for your suggestion.

But keep in mind that "Target" is not allowed in XHTML 1.0 Strict what the portal is based on!

Better (and still XHTML 1.0 Strict) is

Code: Select all

onclick="window.open(this.href); return false;"

what makes the same but does only work with JavaScript activated.

So in your opinion replacement should be

Code: Select all

<li><a href="{link.URL}" title="{link.TEXT}" onclick="window.open(this.href); return false;">{link.TEXT}</a></li>

yes?

That's correct.

Hi el_Vindicador,

it's not a question of right or wrong and sure your modding works.

The phpBB-Forum is written in compliance with the XHTML 1.0 Strict standard and so is the portal.

In this standard "Target" is not allowed as the user shall decide wether he opens a new window with a click a link.

The workaround with the JavaScript is according to the standard and it does what you intended.

So it would be better to use the Java instead of the "Target".
