Georgelemmons Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Whenever I click on a link that someone has posted, it opens up in a new window, which gets really annoying. Im not sure if this is just part of the internet, or something tip.it has done. Other websites don't do this, their links just redirect the page. Please tell me if this isn't something tipi.it can't change. Thanks to Uno for the awsome sig <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freesia Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 I personally wouldn't like it if a link i clicked redirects the current page I am visiting to another one though I could always right click -> open in new tab/window. However, it still depends on how the community wants it like. Strangely with WotLK so near, I wished I could delay it a bit to push through that last TBC content in MH/BT :'(.

Cruiser Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Yes it's Tip.it and yes it's intentional. It's somewhat annoying clicking a link on the forum only to completely lose the thread you were just reading when you may want to reply to it after seeing said link.

Mercifull Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 It is standard to phpBB2.x. It is unlikely to be changed. In phpBB3.x it might be able to be changed in the user preferences but not in the current version. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

darkblade986 Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 If the fact that the forums open a new window annoys you so much, either upgrade to Internet Explorer 7 or install Mozilla Firefox, as both support tabbed browsing. This way, your new window will not open itself in a completely separate window, but instead in a tab within the current window, which helps to keep things much more organized. don't worry, you are going to "hell" anyway. wanna race to see who gets there first?Officially reached 100 Combat at 1:33PM EST, June 14, 2007First Dragon Drop: Dragon Chain (Dust Devils) @ 10:48PM EST, July 14, 2008, lv113 combat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
