But if you still want to do it, you can do it with couple lines of JavaScript. Instructions are mentioned in the adi_link’s docs (ext_link="1" to the tag) and couple lines of JS.
With jQuery library syntax managing the code is real easy:

bc. $(‘a[rel=“external”]’).each(function() { $(this).attr(‘target’, ‘_blank’);
});

ok, i’m using now jQuery in this page but links still don’t open in blank page

Gallex · 2010-02-05 11:36:27

tried this:

$('a[@rel$='external']').click(function(){
     this.target = "_blank";
});

and this:

$("a[href^='http://']").attr("target","_blank");

as welll, but neither did help.
what could be wrong in this page? doctype?
i’m trying to open those external links in new window

You have to wrap that code with jQuery .ready() method:

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('a[@rel$='external']').click(function(){
         this.target = "_blank";
    });
});

Or this:

$(document).ready(function() {
   $("a[href^='http://']").attr("target","_blank");
});

Invalid Javascript, that’s why. It won’t work:

Quotes are wrong. ‘I’ am ‘variable’.
Wasn’t @ removed…?
Okay.

Suggestions:

Use an editor that colors/highlights your code (like textedit, notepad++). Makes your life so much easier.
Search. If you did search google, first hit provided correct answer to this case. But that’s just my alternate reality.

Sometimes learning is better than just ask and abe. It gives you more and eventually you notice that you have so much to give and share to others — or buff-up.

downloaded, installed notepad++
it tells me nothing wrong with that code

$(document).ready(function() {
$('a[rel="external"]').each(function() {
	$(this).attr('target', '_blank');
});
});

or that

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('a[@rel$='external']').click(function(){
         this.target = "_blank";
    });
});

or that

$(document).ready(function() {
   $("a[href^='http://']").attr("target","_blank");
});

i did. first code i get from here ,can’t find second one right now…
copy-pasted them to template, re-typed quotes, double-checked the code…nothing

It’s an editor not a miracle-validator. It doesn’t validate your code, it highlights your syntax. That’s what most syntax editors do:

You can clearly see that something is wrong with that code.

no, i can’t. everywhere is pair of quotes. where’s the trick?

@Gallex – Yes there is something wrong in line 1 and line 3.

You cannot have a single quote within a single quote or a double quote within a double quote.

You need to alternate them for example:

$('a[rel="external"]').
$("a[rel='external']").

Gallex · 2010-02-07 08:37:25

is it correct code now?

$(document).ready(function() {
    $('a[@rel$="external"]').click(function(){
         this.target = "_blank";
    });
});
