Hello XWiki community, The current syntax 2.1 allows me to use
[[ link-label >> http://example.com || target="targ"]] so as to write a link that goes to a named target targ (which could also be "_blank"). However, both XWiki Syntax 2.1 documentation for links: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/XWikiSyntax#HXWikiSyntax2.1LinkSpecification and the WYSIWYG editor employ the rel attribute instead to denote that a link should be opened in a new window. I am surprised such a choice is made since: - the rel attribute is deemed to be only useful for robots (see, e.g. http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/links.html#adef-rel, http://dev.w3.org/html5/markup/a.html#a.attrs.rel,http://reference.sitepoint.com/html/a/rel or http://www.htmlhelp.com/reference/html40/values.html#linktypes) - the target attribute which was deprecated in html4 has been resurrected by hmtl5 and is indeed output by: [[ link-label >> http://example.com || rel="__blank"]] I would suggest: - to modify the syntax documentation to speak about the target attribute as well as the rel attribute (e.g. with the nofollow attribute) - to let the wysiwyg editor output target="_blank" instead of including the rel nae Do you agree? It appears that I need particular rights to edit the XWikiSyntax page. How do I get them? thanks in advance.
