It looks like you are correct. Upgraded to a more recent version and the links now resolve to a new tab.
I should have upgraded and checked prior.

Just have checked using latest 4.0.4-SNAPSHOT - it creates links with target="_blank" attribute set So everything should work as expected According to links in documents: right now documents are being created as background images for WB This allows to draw/type on WB as well as perform "Clean slide" action Creating editable WB documents will require much more efforts Maybe in some future versions ....

Is there a simple way to change that. Currently I am telling people to <right click> and opening in a new tab. But was wondering if there is a simpler way. On the same lines. When uploading a file word document or power point, can it be easily made to make the document "interactive" As someone posts a word documents with Useful Links, but the links themselves are not "clickable" in the document and the individuals have to type them in to another browser window. Wasn't sure if it was just the way the documents are being sent to the white board that are not interactive for myself. -- WBR Maxim aka solomax
