I agree this can be annoying. I don't think a plugin exist yet !

In the editor when inserting a link in content, the popup dialog shows all posts and pages. It would save time if the user was able to choose to see only posts or only pages. Perhaps there is a plugin for this, but if so, I haven't found it yet.

shedonist,
If you can give me a little more guidance I want to give this a try. Where does this code go? Is it in the CSS stylesheet?
Guys above: I don't want you to change WordPress defaults to suit just my needs. I am, however, wishing there were a way I could set the link defaults to suit me in MY own WordPress installations.
Christopheross Thanks but as with shedonist's code, I am not enough of a programmer to make use of the code without a bit more guidance.

Since I first posted this request, I've just started adding this little snippet of JQuery to launch all external links in new windows:

$("a").filter(function() {
        return this.hostname && this.hostname.replace('www.','') !== location.hostname.replace('www.','');
    }).attr('target', '_blank');

I too would like the option to set my default to opening in a new page. Of course I would like to keep users on my page, however I think it is courteous to the user to open in a new window. Since our site has dozens of links that are updated frequently, keeping the top page open allows users to easily refer back to the page with other links.
I will be investigating some of the suggestions posted above.

Actually links are a CPT.

Links will be removed in 3.5, if you're not using them.

Maybe it would be more convenient to include during an export routine as well this way. Right now, you have to use the OPML export - import to back them up, and that doesn't always work very well.

Hi,

I am sorry but I find most relevant people here to solve my query. I tried posting it many times but no one is replying.

Actually my website's all links started opening in new window. I had deleted and deactivated all the plugins but its still happening the same way.

Link to website http://www.topgradepapers.com

when you click on any link either external or internal it opens in new window.

And another annoying this is that it happens only in Firefox and Chrome. Its not happening in the IE or opera.

Please help. Thanks :)
