Question

Hi,

is there a short and easy way to have external links opened in a new browser window without using HTML-tags?

Maybe a %VARIABLE that can be used?

Thanks

I modifed the code to do that. </TWiki/lib/TWiki/Render.pm> has the global handler of external links (sub _externalLink) . Change target="_top" to target="_blank".

There is not any syntax for this in standard TWiki. You might check out LinkOptionsPlugin.
