[pmwiki-users] "/e" in Cookbook / ExternalLinks2

[Donald Z. Osborn]

Thank you Petko, It works.

Wrt opening new tab on click, I understand you, but also have long noted
some sites doing this (big ons, for example, like Twitter & LinkedIn). My
original thinking some years back was that since I often include a lot of
outlinks, I didn't want to "lose" visitors who follow a link out to others.
Anyway, am rethinking.

Just for fun I put up a poll on Twitter about this issue:
