Hyperlink in Newletter
Is there a way to keep the newsletter page open while clicking on a Hyperlink to a Mormon message and have it automatically open a new window to the Mormon message?

Re: Hyperlink in Newletter
I am not sure how it would work in the situation you mention, but with most browsers, if you right click on a hyperlink, you then have the option to open the link as either a new tab in your currently opened browser, or in a newly opened instance of your browser.taggartm wrote:Is there a way to keep the newsletter page open while clicking on a Hyperlink to a Mormon message and have it automatically open a new window to the Mormon message?

Re: Hyperlink in Newletter
lajackson's comment will help you if you're reading the newsletter.
On the other hand, if your question is from the newsletter article writer perspective (can I insert a hyperlink that will automatically open the link in a new window) the answer is no. Some web editing tools give you a choice when inserting a hyperlink whether you want it to open in a new window, but the Newsletter does not.

Normally the html code for a link is
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com">Go to Yahoo</a>
and for a new page it is
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com" target="_blank">Go to Yahoo</a
In the newsletter, you type the name you want to show, in this example Yahoo. You highlight it then you click the link symbol and enter just the url http://www.yahoo.com.
I tried various form of text to add target="_blank" but the website rejects it. Using the right mouse on the link and selecting open in new page does work however.
Incidentally, instead of a page you can open a blank email using the hyperlink. Follow the same procedure for a page. Say your name is Tom Smith and your email is name@domain.com. You'd type in the page Tom Smith, highlight it, click the hyperlink symbol and enter mailto:name@domain.com. If you'd like the mail to open with a title such as Newsletter, enter mailto:name@domain.com?subject=Newsletter.
