thanks but i've tried that already.

with a forum url, I mean a Forum, That is used as an url.

Do you mean links posted in topics like on this forum?

If so then this mod is what we use which automatically opens all links in new windows.

on the admin control panel, under forums you can add new forum. and select from a drop down box if its either a: forum, Link, or Category.

when you select link i can only declare the full url. so http://www.etcetc.com/
and if it logs and displays the number of redirects.

but when you click the url on your forum, it opens in the same browser.
and i want it to open in a new window, 765 x 505 if possible. 🙂

Oh, i see.

I don't know how you would go about changing that.

If using phpBB3,

Open: /styles/*yourstyle*/template/forumlist_body.html

Find:

<a href="{forumrow.U_VIEWFORUM}" class="forumtitle">

Replace with:

<a href="{forumrow.U_VIEWFORUM}" class="forumtitle" <!-- IF forumrow.S_IS_LINK -->target="_blank"<!-- ENDIF -->>
