Hey. This is for 6.x-2.x (feb 25, 2011).

I see some new behavior that is troubling. Link fields that are configured to 'Open link in new window' will open a new window and a second later will also load the link url in the root window.

If I use 'Default', 'Open link in window root' configurations, it works as expected, as well as when I enter a url manually or using link_node and node reference. It only happens on links created with the Link CCK field. The weirdest thing is that if I read the link (made using CCK field type) with Firebug it only shows target="_blank", so I don't understand how this could happen unless there's a problem with the php.

Go here to see what I mean: http://northshorekid.com/event/spring-thaw-introduction-vernal-ponds

  • All the links listed under the field label 'Website(s):' are created using link cck field.
  • Check the behavior of the other links in the node/page too, you'll see that all the non-CCK-Link links are are working properly:
    • location links are created using node reference
    • the links in the body of the node are made using link node
    • if you click the Link to our facebook page abover our sitewide like box

Ah, so it sounds like it's a duplicate of #1057914: Custom outbound link tracking with outdated link targets or javascript is broken, and not a problem with link module.

Which is good, because I had no idea what was going on there. :)
