[Phpmyadmin-devel] new setup and links

Hi, I think the question mark links (?) and information links (i) should open a new window. Marc

That way we force users to open links always in a new window or tab, I intentionally left these as normal links because that way a user can decide what happens: eg. ctrl+click or middle mouse button uses new tab, shift+click opens in a new window. I'm against such change. Piotr 2008/11/12 Marc Delisle <Marc.Delisle@cegepsherbrooke.qc.ca>:

Piotr, I see your point, but in which case would a user want to override his setup window with doc? Also, the other similar links on the phpMyAdmin interface itself open another window/tab. Marc Piotr Przybylski a écrit :

Generally I agree with this POV, however for documentation, user usually expects it to open in new window and not to replace the application he is using. -- Michal Čihař | http://cihar.com | http://blog.cihar.com
