# target=’_blank’

 * Can someone help me find what is putting this code into my “a href” image link
   in my Post? I installed an image pop-up display when you click on the image, 
   but it opens into a new browser window instead. The plugin author said to get
   rid of the “target=_blank”.
 * I edited the quicktags.js file to comment out the code where it adds it, but 
   it is still there. If anyone can help, I would appreciate it.
 * Thanks, jim

 * sorry, but without knowing what plugin your are talking about, and with no link,
   it’s hard to help you.
 * when i use the plain img quicktag in the editing screen, i don’t get the target
   =”_blank”… so i assume it’s something else you’re using?

 * Sorry for not closing this. It was a plugin called wp-blank-target that was installed
   with the Springer theme. I deactivated it and am fine.

 * So why are you *still* not closing it, if your issue is resolved?
