View Full Version : Attachments & the way they open...

I'm awaiting m0rk to come and kick my ass before even writing this.

Before, when you clicked on an attachment, it automatically opened in a new window. Now it seems to open in the same window.

As I'm used to it opening in a new window, I automatically close it and then end up :banghead2

I know about right click and opening in new window before it gets suggested...I will get used to it, but is there any chance of changing it back?

Sorry for moaning... :blahblah:

I'll get a copy of it & see if it's comething obvious, or not

I don't really notice it as I use browsers that open in a new tab behind the one you're looking at by clicking the middle button.

much easier :)

is this also the cause of pasting tagged images and they still show as links instead of the actual image?

agreed tom, i liked the pop up window rather than the same window, caught me out quite a few times, where i closed the window to go back to the forum but looked in my task bar to find i'd closed the only IE window.
