Links that open in a new window

We frequently get asked if it's possible in Collage to make links that when clicked open a new browser window. Sometimes if you are making a link to an external site (like the Mail Services site might link to the postal rates at usps.com) you might want the link to open in a new window so that users don't totally navigate away from your site. (Your site would still be open in the window below the new window.)

To see this in action, check out how this link to usps.com opens in a new window. Just close the new window and you'll see this blog again.

To set this up in Collage is very simple. When you are making an external link you will see there is an option for "Target." By deafult it is set to "Current Window." Just switch it to "New Window" and your link will pop open a new window when clicked.
