    Could you please add to your plug-in the ability to open the redirected URL in a new tab. I use your plug-in to redirect some pages to a different website but I don’t want visitors to leave my website. This seems like it would be a very important feature for your plug-in.

    I also think that opening redirected URLs in a new window would be a very useful feature.

    Thanks.

    I was just about to ask the same or at least how could this work with a regex.

    It’s not possible to do this.

    If you want to open a link in a new tab then add target="_blank" to the link.

    Actually I don’t have this obvious option. I use the redirects in a tag cloud (xili-tags) with both, external and internal links.

    I found a redirection plugin which does the job using jquery, but it does not group redirects, like yours, which is needful for me, too.

    That uses javascript to do the same thing as adding target=”_blank”.

    Redirection is a server redirect, and it is not possible for the server to open a URL in a new browser window.
