Hello!
I have a problem with a form that has commandlinks with target="_blank".
The problem is that sometimes the new window opens with the same page I
am coming from, sometimes it opens the correct new page I have defined
in faces-config.xml. The behaviour is completely random. I tried to have
a target="_blank" on form level and use commandbuttons. But the
behaviour stays the same. So there must be something I am doing wrong.
In the logfile are no exceptions or warnings.
Environment:
* Sun JDK 5.0
* Tomcat 5.5.16
* MyFaces 1.1.1
I attached the JSP for reference.
Thanks for any advice
Thomas
