How do I change the default in active text so that when a active link text is clicked on it opens in a new window not the parent window?

Thanks for you help

Your activetext entry would look like:
Code

_target="blank"
is standard html which when placed as suggested will cause a new browser window to display the url. Instead of replacing the existing window.
