I have used target=blank everywhere imaginable to no avail. Suggestions? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrea Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 I don't think you can change that, that link is part of the RSS you're importing. Also, you have 69 validation errors, are using an HTML 5 doctype, but instead of using HTML5 tags, you have a slew of deprecated tags and inline styling.

Do you mean that the WordPress theme is html5? Is there an app for searching it to locate the html tags and change them to html5? Are these the validation errors you referenced?

Andrea Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 I just looked at your source code - it begins with <!DOCTYPE html> which is the doctype for HTML 5. The validation errors I found via: http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3A%2F%2Fmarkdex.com%2F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newseed Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 I just looked at your source code - it begins with <!DOCTYPE html> which is the doctype for HTML 5. Most people really don't know this but that doctype is backward compatible and so using it will still force older/modern browsers like IE6, 7, 8 Firefox 2, Opera, etc. and on up to render the page(s) in standard mode.

What would be the point so in using this doctype and nothing but pre HTML5 tags? Is there any advantage to that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newseed Posted August 16, 2011 Report Share Posted August 16, 2011 No real advantage except to prevent browsers from going into quirks mode regardless what standard you use inlcuding <!DOCTYPE html>. All the other stuff like <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> is for validation purposes.
