External links should open a new tab/window, while internal links should not.
I asked for this some 7 years ago, to which Jesper replied "Isn't it better to allow the user to choose whether he wants to open it in a new tab/window instead of forcing it?" (the only wise thing he has ever said ;)). He said that when tabbed browsing was getting popular, and I couldn't agree more. Let the users choose where to open their links, it takes literally one click to open in the same window/tab and also one click for a new window/tab.

It was only one of the first things I learned at school about web design...

It is mainly the courtesy, in not pretending the linked content is part of your site.

Also, I find it highly annoying when testing an external link in newreply's preview.
What I find annoying is, most web browsers will open links in new tabs/windows on the foreground, and I believe that is a complete lack of Netiquette. :S

Last view: 4275 days 		Yes, some browsers have it as a setting. I have middle click set to open new tab in background. The thing is it's usually a setting, not a default.

I personally use the HTML tag myself. I think a lot of us from the old board do it that way. I suppose this could be part o the code for the UBB style tag. However if the majority of us do use the HTML one it won't have much of an effect. :(
Ideally, every html tag should be disallowed and replaced by equivalent bb-codes. Not only is that more user-friendly but it's also safer.

I only use HTML tags because I'm too lazy to find out how the url tag works, and I can't find an img tag on the toolbar.

But HTML can do stuff BBcode doesn't. That would really be not a good idea in practice.
Such as...?

I dunno, it works in every forum software that isn't AcmlmBoard.

Allowing (most) arbitrary HTML is I think one of the "selling points" of this board software, even if it can be a security risk...
I don't think this board software has had any "selling points" since 2007 or so.

The obvious example of what can't be done with BBcode is the entire post layout thing- I mean, you could reimplement everything in some sort of code that gets preprocessed as HTML/CSS, but why bother?
Safety.

As I said in another thread, post layouts should be done with a WYSIWYG editor of sorts, using bb tags, that way a random user can't simple go and make scrolling bugs (like I did with my layout), or break tables, etc. It's also more professional, though that might be irrelevant.

Honestly that's the first time I heard about that, and to be honest I get a little annoyed if every other link opened a new tab when I don't mean to. I do middle-mouseclick a lot (which open links in new tabs) but I still want it to be up to me what the behavior is.
Same. Also it makes me think before clicking a link, when I suspect it might open in a new tab, I just middle-click it to open on the foreground.

To smartasses: Don't care if there's any config or extension that will change this behavior. Muscle memory for the win.

Let your mouse over me

This is one potential advantage of HTML, among others. Also what is so bad about "a href" and security? wait what are you saying? ABXD never filtered "a href"...
That could be replaced by title sub-attributes in the [ url ] tag.
End-users shouldn't be dealing directly with HTML tags. What if it was a link to this?

EDIT: Point is, with a bb tag it's easier to parse the link and disallow malicious actions.
EDIT2: What if it was an img tag? :P

the BB tags are mostly there for those who don't know about html.. or don't realise the board supports it.

Or that's just how I see it.
I always saw Acmlmboard as potential real-world software, so for me allowing HTML as a security risk, among other things. Of course, Acmlmboard was coded by Acmlm just "for fun", with no intentions of ever having it as "real-world" software I believe.

Okay, let's just go and nuke one of the great features unique to Acmlmboard for added security. Oh wait, users would find ways to hax the bbcodes.
You clearly know nothing about compilers and parsing. You should really refrain from talking about technical stuff you know nothing about.

Posted by Mega-Mario
Let's just not allow anything other than plaintext so that we're not running any risk.
:lol:

Posted by Mega-Mario
Seriously speaking, I'm all for keeping HTML as much open as we can. An Acmlmboard without HTML isn't an Acmlmboard. It's just yet another boring board software.
What if we have bb codes for all the needed HTML? Woul you still want "FULL HTML SUPPORT"? It sounds like someone is looking for exploits... ;)

Seriously, why can't you just leave everything as it is? After all, it's long been any sysadmin's mantra to never change a running system, and that for a good reason. It works, and that's the most important thing.
To be honest, that's an horrible example in this situation. But whatever either way, it's important to be able to use > and < I guess.
