What's with the links that don't open in a new window?

[TheChort]

Check out the links on this page


I thought all the links made in this forum open in a new window.

EDIT: For the nazi's, I made a new thread cuz this isn't the first time I'm seeing this happen.

Same here.

Wierd...

Plus I see the links in black instead of blue.

Maybe I'm special

He didn't mean the link to the other thread. He meant the link in the first post of the other thread.
I don't know why it doesn't open in another window but it could have something to do with the text being black rather than blue.

Ohhhhhhhh. Whoops. I think it has to do whether you enter the link using the "http" button in the reply box, or you just let fusetalk autoparse the url's.

Yes, don't use <a href....

It's because you clicked a link from this forum whose target didn't exist yet so your browser opened a new window. Now when you click a link on the linked page, the target already exists so your browser opens the link in that window.

Just the URL

the URL in [ L ] tags

and a href don't work, :/

Correct. The root cause of this problem lies in an error in the way FuseTalk is coded. New windows should be spawned in a A TARGET of "_blank", not "new".

no, I don't think so. As someone else said, I think it has something to do with how those links were added to that post. They don't have target tags at all.
