Opening links into a new window...

I'm back again! I'm sure this is covered elsewhere but with the search giving me the 500 error... I can't find it.

As I mentioned before - I am trying to put a poll up on my forum. I've tried just about everything I can to find a poll that allows multiple votes by the same person and that will work embedded on Lefora and have failed! So barring that - I decided to just use the sidebar to create a link to a poll that is being hosted elsewhere. I really do NOT want to drive traffic from the forum though so I thought I would include the target="_blank" attribute to the link to get it to at least open in another window. However... Lefora apparently doesn't support that particular attribute either!

So my question is.... is there ANY way to make a link open into another window on Lefora?

Thanks!

It seems search is throwing an error for everybody (Server 500) we'll get this fixed today, thank you for posting.

as for new links opening in a new window, there's no way to change that at the moment, but i'll put it on our wishlist to allow admins to set sidebar links to open in a new window.

What about links that are within a post?
Can they be set to open in a Blank Page rather than taking the user away from the forum?

ie: target=_blank
