   hi
   im trying to make my footer social media links open in a new window when clicked. i have tried adding target="_blank" but i think im just not adding it in the correct place on each link. im adding it right at the end after border="0" but the links still open in the same window.

   my footer.php file:
   

   <?php
   /**
    * @package WordPress
    * @subpackage Default_Theme
    */
   ?>
   
   <div class="clear"></div>
   
   </div>
   	</div>
       	</div>
   
   </div>
   
   <div id="footer" role="contentinfo">
   	<div class="footer_content">       
   
          	<?php wp_page_menu('show_home=1&exclude=385, 389, 392, 398, 400, 404, 407&menu_class=footer_menu'); ?>
   
           <div class="footer_share_box">
               <img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/share1.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" />
               <a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/feed/rss/"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/rss.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" /></a>
               <a href="http://digg.com/submit?phase=2&url=<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/digg.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" /></a>
               <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/facebook.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" /></a>
               <a href="http://reddit.com/submit?url=<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/reddit.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" /></a>
               <a href="http://twitthis.com/twit?url=<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/twitter.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" /></a>
               <a href="http://www.stumbleupon.com/submit?url=<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/stumble.gif" alt="" title="" border="0" /></a>
           </div>

           </div>

   target="_blank" went in straight after the second ". Before the ><img src=... Links work fine now.
