<< That gets translated to:

<a href="http://www.anandtech.com" target="_blank">here</a>
>>



All links actually have a target=new stuck on them, not target=_blank, as it should be.
This still causes a link to open up in a new window, but then if you minimize that window to go back to it later, and then you click on another link...it doesn't open up in a new window. Insead, it opens up in that window that you had minimized.

Well, I'd rather see it changed to target=_blank in the code rather than in the FAQ...it's just that the FAQ states how it should be, not how it is. ;)

edit:
Thanks for the insult Mod. Though as I said I was pointing this out more to inspire a change in the functionality of the forums, rather than an edit of the FAQ. But I suppose the latter is the easiest rout, so do what you must.

Because we strive to accommodate even our most anal retentive members, the FAQ has been corrected. The change will show with the next database update.
