Richard, Any chance the site can be set up so that when a link is clicked, its opens in a new window? Most sites i frequent/visit are set up this way. When i'm done viewing the link i usually click close...which results in having to come back and re-open this site cause of habit. Its not that big of a deal, but annoying at times.... :drink:

Right click the link itself and go to open in new tab !!!

i'm too clicky happy to stop and think about doing that....LOL

I usually forget :P

Scroll wheel/Button 3 works better for that :P

Sorry... was on an iPhone coding binge until just now (curse you oversized novelty energy drinks!). I'll see what I can do.

I can't change the behaviour without editing the code behind the board, which would potentially make future version updates flaky as hell, so I'd rather not.
Meanwhile if you're using a vaguely modern browser ctrl-click will do the same as right-click->open in new tab.
If this is really bugging a lot of people (add a me too here if so) then I'll go ahead and change it; it's just a fair bit of hassle.
Other sites based on older versions of PHPBB will potentially do the target="_blank" thing, but that's generally not considered good form these days by purists. :-/

no worries....not that big of a deal to go about changing it. I just thought it might have been something simple and decided to ask.
Keep up the great work running the site... :rock:
And thanks to Gil for the tip on the scroll wheel...learn something new everyday...computers are not my strong point.. :drink:
