    • Messages - default target for url BBCode

      Hi all,

      In messages the usage of BBCode is quite a nice feature.
      I personally take use of the various tags regularly and find them very helpful.

      But since long ago, I think that the URL-Tag should by default target new Window/Tab instead of the actual window.
      The same applies to links on the alliance page, especially the internal one where one often has links to external tools like chat or galaxy tool.

      In the implementation one could as well set the default target to new window except if the URL was pointing to the current game server
      I'd suggest the following implementation:

      Source Code

      1. [url="http://xyz.com/..."]xyz[/url] -> <href a="http://xyz.com/..." target="_blank">xyz</href>
      2. [url="http://ogameserver/game/..."]xyz[/url] -> <href a="http://gameserver/game/..." target="_self">xyz</href>


      Additionally it would be nice if URLs would be recognized by the system itself. so if a user types a link it would automatically be extended with the url tag.

      Regards
