[thelist] Handling external links with JS

I mentioned the depreciation of the target property because your code looked
like it used it: anchors[i].setAttribute("target","_blank");
I find that by doing <a href='http://siteurl' onclick="return
newWin(this)"></a>
And then having a function newWin which opens a new window and returns false
to prevent the event from loading in that window.
Just a thought.
What's the rest of your code? I tried the solution I posted on one of my asp
pages as:
if(window.location.href.toLowerCase().indexOf(".asp") >= 0){
alert('ASP Page')
}
and that worked fine.

Right, that's why im wanting to use this script in the first place.
Instead of a pop() function, it will automatically pop a new window via
javascript.

>> if(window.location.href.toLowerCase().indexOf("out.php") >= 0){/*is
out page*/}
Thanks for trying, but it doesn't work either :(
