[solved] target=_blank changes to target=_self

Post by janvl »

Hi,

in one of the installs with 10.1.3, I have a customer that uses a lot of PDF's. Those were linked with target=_blank.
I just needed to change the pages and now ALL target's are changed to _self.

I first thought it was TinyMCE, so I changed to Microtiny without any result. I cannot save "_blank" what is causing this odd behaviour?
I have never had this problem before.

Solution
DO NOT INSTALL FIREFOX ADDON "targetkiller"


Kind regards,
Jan

I just made a new page.

a few words, an enter
and a link
the link marked as to open in a new window

this is done with microtiny

I can see _blank in the html-code, then I save it.

call the page in the browser, click the link and it opens in the same window. Go to the admin-pages, open the site, check the html-code and there is _self.

so it gets changed "by it self".

I cannot find a reason for this behaviour.

FOUND IT
Firefox addon "targetkiller"

Kind regards,
Jan
