Another? As well as Smiffy?! :shock: :wink:
My tip for when you get bored of 'DIY' (if that's possible?) is to try it with your other hand. It's *almost* like someone else is doing it...

Made a lot of changes over the last two evenings, upgraded to the latest version of the software, pointless task it turns out, absolutley NO benefit!

I've also tidied various bits up , like the rank and quote button around your personal avatar.

All the changes have been by hand this time so much more chance of a cock up! Let me know if you have problems!

You little beaver you! No cock ups that I can see mate, although one thing which I think would benfit from changing is when you click on linky it automatically opens up a new tab/window rather than forwards the current window onto the linky one. What thinks you my ginger scroat?

your winding me up no? The request was made sometime ago to have a link open into a new window, and now you want it in a new tab? Basterd, making my life hard.

Seriously, good idea, i've no clue if this would be a simple or difficult thing to do, i'll investigate!

Personally speaking I like habing a link open in a new window TBH.
Then you can click the link, read whatever the fuck it's all about and close it down whilst still being exactley where you were on here like..

Ooh, and we have a garage!

We are not talking about opening a new page or not, but where the new page opens. Fancy new browsers can open a new page in a tab (IE7 and Firefox have this as standard), so Bandit is suggesting that rather than opening a whole new browser window to display a page, that links open a new page under a new tab.

I'll try figure out how to do it, then you can see what i mean, and delete if needed!

Errr, well, I use google chrome. When, for eg I'm on BXC and click on a link, a new tab/window opens to display the linked webpage whilst still keeping open the page I was on on bxc (which is what doc described) BUT on here, if I click on a link, the current page (i.e. BXP) changes to the linked webpage. I did mention it last time when you upgraded to phhhhppbbbhhpphhppp3 and I thought for a while you'd sorted it. Unless it's to do with settings in my browser?

I thought you where being clever! I guess not.

Links to external sites SHOULD open in a new window, if they are not then i have probably fucked with something!

Me...clever Vanny? Not me matey, every time I try I look stoopid!

I'll try it in IE then mate.

Why did you get fooked off with Chrome doc? I find it great........except: The number of sites which don't quite work 100%, either because they just don't seem to (Citroen Service Portal is a prime example) or because Chrome hasn't got this or that add on.

I tried firefox once but didn't like it much. I also like the simplicity of Chrome and wish to avoid IE for all it's extra baggage!
