Open in a new window? This would be very handy. Thanks

There is a fairly quick and painless way to do this. Just select the text you want to link, click the hyperlink button in the menu bar of your message window (you have to be using the "enhanced" composition window - it's an option in your site preferences), and pull down the menu that says "Open link in new window". Hope that helps!

Of course, that's if you are creating a new post. If you're clicking a link in an existing post, you'll just have to use your right-click menu to open a new window.

 Or, if you are using IE.

Ctrl + Click = new tab

Ctrl + Shift + click  = New tab and switch to it.

Ctrl + Shift + alt +click = new window

 Or pretty much any other browser, click on your scrollwheel (except on those Logitech mouses that has a tilt function).
