 * Adding the remove_action code listed above just get’s my TEC templates ignored
   altogether. After I added this code, my events listing became just a typical 
   category listing using the standard category.php template with working sidebars.
 * FYI, I made a copy of the TEC “views” folder within my theme folder and renamed
   it “events”. That all works fine, but my sidebar never gets populated.
 * I’m at a loss here. Any ideas?
 * Thanks

 * I created a new template as Jeff suggested and modified the frontpageSlideshow
   function to test if the link is an indexOf the site’s URL. If it isn’t, then 
   I added a target, “_blank” attribute to the link. Here’s the code:

 * That does in fact work. Unfortunately, what I need is a way to selectively choose
   which slides open in a new window.
 * I guess I will need to figure out how to run a regular expression function on
   the fs-link parameter to determine if the link is an internal or external link.
   I’m okay with all external links opening in a new window. I’ll post the solution
   if I can figure it out (regular expressions are not my strength). If someone 
   else is a regex wiz, please post a solution here.
