How Stupid was this ?

[Peter Lang]

In the old forum there was a thread with this topic, concerning the Air Force One "stunt" over New York.

Today the German spiegel online said that the US governement released the pictures.

PS: would it be possible to set the links to a new browser window as a standard?

[Jeroen Hoppenbrouwers]

My browser has that option; maybe yours has that, too? Current philosophy among web designers is that only you can decide what you want to do with a link.

Hi Jeroen,

I use the IE6. The option to open links in the same browser window is unchecked.  In the old forum the browser opens a new window automatically. Here in the new forum not.  Thats why I asked.

Is there anything else to check or do I have to live with it?

Check whether you have automatic updates on... Mickeysoft has been trying to upgrade your IE6 for five years  :mrgreen:

[Peter Lang]

The field in the IE options was marked to allow this. Perhaps I slapped the updater to often on the fingers

Hi Peter,

if you would use Opera (freeware), you could open a link in a new tab with a simple mouse gesture:

- Right-click and drag down: Link opens in new tab in the foreground.

- Right-click and drag down and up: Link opens in new tab in the background.

It's fantastic. No menu, nothing. Just a mouse gesture. Feet and left hand are still free for rudder pedals and beer can.


Good night,

IEeeeek!

Just for completeness:
Firefox: click link with middle button to open in new tab. Or right-click and select opening in new window or new tab from context menu,.

Cheers,
Martin

Hi Hardy,

with a right click on the link it is also possible to open it in a new browser window with IE.

But nevertheless I'm just downloading Opera and see what it does :-)

Thanks
Peter
