candy, do a search within the index.php file and look for every reference to the following within the building of an anchor tag:

d_op=getit

and you will need to add a target="_blank" to it. This is probably best described by example:

Within RavenNuke, one of the code lines looks like this:

Code:




echo '<a href="modules.php?name='.$module_name.'&amp;d_op=getit&amp;lid='.$lid.'">'.$title.'</a>';

Changing it to this should do what you are asking:

Code:




echo '<a href="modules.php?name='.$module_name.'&amp;d_op=getit&amp;lid='.$lid.'" target="_blank">'.$title.'</a>';
