Links that open in new window, open in same window

[CD]

<script>
// Links that open in a new window now open in the same window
var aAH = document.getElementsByTagName("A");
for(a=0;a<aAH.length;a++){
if(aAH[a].target=="_blank"){
aAH[a].target="_top";
}}
</script>

No editing, just put it in your footers. This will not effect the ads at the very bottom. Just everything above those.

Both PBv3 and PBv4 compatiable.


Edit: And before anyone says anything about it being too simple, Naruto said we needed some simple codes, to make the PBv4 database larger.

This code kinda annoying

It just has them open in the same window. You can always just middle click them for a new tab Crazy.

^ That's what I thought at first =P

I've never heard of target="_top" though. Should it be _self?

[CD]

Its for frame causes. If the page loads in a frame/iframe, and you click that, it makes the window load above the frame >_> Its just a coding habit.

did you try using it like Naruto said?

maybe itll replace the ads with the link you clicked
that would be freaking awesome XD

Actually, since they are an iFrame... yes, yes it would XD But only if you click the ad link. XD But you could set target to the name of the iFrame XD

the iframe has a name?
wait....i dont get it.
put the code in my test forum and lemme see.


btw, i used to use document.links.
i wonder why nobody uses it anymore, not cross browser i guess?!

[CD]

It should. All iframes SHOULD have a name, but it probably doesn't.


You add the code if you want to test it.
