It's baaaack.  ;D  When the new forum started up, it would open a link in a new tab. Just noticed this morning that now it uses the existing tab.

I'll go back to being a conservative, when conservatives go back to being conservative.

I clicked on the link I just posted and it takes me to EMC in a new window :shrug:

Thads link was wrapped in iurl tags which in smf, opens in the same browser window. I change it to url and now it works fine.

I disabled the iurl bbcode tag. I can't think of a reason that we would want to use it?

I'll save myself a lot of typing and you guys a lot of reading by simply saying that you figured it out. Thanks.  :thumbsup:

Some of my response is to give Byte a heads up on any changes that I make so he's aware.

Problem solved. :D
