I'm turning this thread into a pile of instructions, as it's become an FAQ :)

More..

Generally the way to do it is this:

* Go to edit your digest.
* Find the template selection box, and then click the link that lets you manually edit your template's HTML.
* Find the code which looks somewhat like.. < a href="%URL%" >%TITLE%< /a > etc..
* Add the target="_blank" in.. < a href="%URL%" target="_new">%TITLE%< /a >

Please note that the target is underscore blank, rather than just blank. :)

If you go in to your control panel and "edit" your digest, you can scroll down to where you choose the template. At that point click the link to manually edit your template's code. This will present you with a bundle of HTML that is used to render your digest each time.

You'll see something like: < a href="%URL%" >%TITLE%< /a > amongst all of this. This is where you can add the target="_blank", for example: < a href="%URL%" >%TITLE%< /a >

Hi.

Can anyone tell me how to set up the newsreader so that all feed links open in a new window when clicked by users.

I'm using Javascript.

Cheers,
Rob.
