it all started with the Think Geek link that Andy "fixed". Buckyballs apeared and found my way to YouTube. now im here (once again i've stopped punctuating) and i start seeing video on magnetic generators. these generators can supposedly creat energy from permanent magnets. so the first website i click on wants me to buy something. i try to leave... and it wont let me. finally i get away and make my way to a new site. The Sealy Effect. this guy claims, by using certain rare metals, he can collect free electrons from the atmosphere and, with the help of some other metals and magnets, creat this multi-laye generator that will produce energy or torque (twisting motion). for every website i find, i find one that calls it a hoax. im reading previosly classified documents, watching videos, and reading comments from god knows who. so two hours later i've learned nothing about magnetic generators or buckyballs... in short I HATE THE INTERNET.
Maybe Biblio can help us with this...
ReplyDeleteI know the scripting necessary, not very complicated, just need to add - target="blank" - in the html line after the url BUT!! I changed all the links on our page to reflect this, it worked, I closed the screen, came back, and then it reverted to the original. If you can find a way to save the information after editing a specific element or script then I can change all of them...
Still searching for the global change that will allow all future posts to reflect this script.
Let me know what we come up with.

sry, typo...
ReplyDeletemeant to write
target="_blank"

I added the global tag but I don't like how every link opens a new window. Try it out a bit and let me know if you like it. We should be able to add the parameter one link at a time in each post as well.
ReplyDeleteone link would work just fine.... first things forts. Thank You. anyway, one link would be fine , my only concern was leaving the blog. navagationg within the blog doesnt warrant a new window, in my opinion, but clicking links to other websites or blogs or what have you should be seperate so you dont always leave and once youve seen what you wanted to see you can go back to your business by simply closing a window and your right where you left off. i dont know if thats possible that just what i had in mind.
ReplyDeleteI put it back the way it was. I will keep looking for a way to globally set all external links to the target _blank.
