[jQuery] Re: [Attrib external not working...]

2009-09-22 Thread Liam Byrne 


Maybe because 'rel=external' doesn't have any meaning or functionality ?

The proper syntax with functionality would be a target=_blank 
href=http://www.google.com;google/a but that's just HTML; it has 
nothing to do with jQuery

Except that target=_blank is deprecated in xhtml 1.1, so to make sure 
you're markup validates, you need to use javascript to make links open 
in a new window/tab.


One way to do it is like this.

$(a[rel='external']).click(function(){
   this.target = _blank;
   });

Now why would target=_blank be deprecated without a suitable HTML
substitute, requiring coders to have to resort to js for the functionality?

Odd...

I have no idea, I think it was a stupid choice, I believe the reason 
behind it was that people should be able to choose how to open a link, 
and forcing a new window removes this choice, and confuses the user, 
because the back button stops working.


I prefer external sites to open in a new window/tab, I almost expect 
them to.

I don't. That's the reason :)

What you should do is indicate when a link leads to a external site,
via an icon or formatting, like Wikipedia articles.

In XHTML 1.0 Transitional target is still valid.

add this and it will work.
if you want it to work it needs the following js code.

function externalLinks() {
 if (!document.getElementsByTagName) return;
 var anchors = document.getElementsByTagName(a);
 for (var i=0; ianchors.length; i++) {
   var anchor = anchors[i];
   if (anchor.getAttribute(href) 
   anchor.getAttribute(rel) == external)
 anchor.target = _blank;
 }
}
window.onload = externalLinks;
