      This is getting ridiculous. This same issue exists in the newer version of Confluence. Fix it or effectively tell your customers (They pay for the product remember) to sod off.

      =================

      Confluence needs to support opening a link in a new window.

      Although I admit that it probably shouldn't use target as that's deprecated, it should still do it (article on standards compliant way: http://www.sitepoint.com/article/standards-compliant-world).

      Wordpress does it and I use it all the time. Within a week of us rolling out Confluence at my company, people have started asking for it.

      I am aware of the CONF-1210, CONF-7045, and CONF-6947 marked "Will not fix," but this is a simple feature found in competing products which users find useful and I wanted to open it again and get votes behind it.

      The

      {link-to}

      macro doesn't do this for external links so it doesn't satisfy this requirement.
