Forum:External links

Is there a way to get external links (ie Example ) to automatically open up in a new window? Can this be achieved by editing one of the system message pages (and if so, which one?)? « Amina. skywalker (¿Hábleme?)  00:28, 8 December 2006 (UTC)


 * I don't think that is possible without editing the lower level MediaWiki files (or a hacky and unreliable JS). But as almost all modern browsers let you easily open in new tabs or new windows (with a simple shift/alt keypress, right click, or middle click) there is very little reason to do this anymore. External links on a wiki are noted by the external.png image. --Splarka (talk) 01:28, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
