• I’m having issues with opening links in a new tab. On this site – deluxecorpjobs.com

    I’m trying to have the social media icons link to my corresponding social media pages in a new window.

    I’ve inserted code into a text plugin on my header in the Minimize theme. I realize that I need to insert target=”_blank” into the code for each site and I did that for the facebook icon but when I do that it opens a new window and tries to navigate to this url..

    http://deluxecorpjobs.com/%E2%80%98http:/www.facebook.com/deluxecareers

    …instead of just facebook.com/deluxecareers. This is resulting in a 404 error.

    Below is the code I’m using. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    <div>
    <a href=“http://www.facebook.com/deluxecareers” target=“_blank”>
    <img title="Facebook" alt="Facebook" src="https://socialmediawidgets.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/02_facebook.png" width="32” height="32” />
