Hi TheDiveO

The $link widget is used for creating internal links to tiddlers.

To create an external link you should use the HTML <a> element:

\define _rfclink(n)
<a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc$n$"; class="tw-link-external"
target="_blank"><$transclude field="rfc-title">//untitled RFC
document//</$transclude></a>
\end

Best wishes

Jeremy
