    i’m sure this question has been answered somewhere..however, i can’t find the answer.
    currently, i’ve got my comments in a popup window.
    i use <?php comment_author_link() ?> to display the link to the author’s website, if they have one.
    the downside to this is, as you might know, clicking on their link opens their webpage in the already popped up (heh-for lack of a better term) window.
    is there anyway to avoid this? possibly by defining a target?
    any help would be much appreciated.
    thanks in advance.

    I’d like to know where to put that as well. Do you insert the target=_blank into your index or the wp-comments-popup.php file? And then where would you insert that?

    <?php if ($comments) { ?>
    <ol id="commentlist">
    <?php foreach ($comments as $comment) { ?>
    <li id="comment-<?php comment_ID() ?>">
    <?php comment_text() ?>
    Posted by <?php comment_author_link() ?> at <?php comment_time() ?> on <?php comment_date() ?>.

    <?php } // end for each comment ?>


    This is coding for where I use it on the site.

    I’m still having problems with this issue. Does anyone else have any ideas?

    i’ve got a problem almost like this. the comment author’s links open in new windows as per normal. However, when i click on the button to submit the comment, instead of getting back to the same comments page with the new comments, i get back to the non-popup version of the comments page for that post(meaning the original index page). all this happens inside that popup window.
    how do i fix it so that when i submit, it loads the popup version of the comments page?
    thanks.
