I need some help with a vB plugin code. The code below is used for adding ed2k links and ed2k server links to your board. But the links open in "New Browser Window" when clicked on the forum which I don't want. Is there anybody here who knows what needs to be changed or added to the code below so the links open in the "Same Browser Window" instead.

Theres no code in there to open a new browser window.

vB automatically makes links in posts and threads open in new windows.

I was wondering that, so it's using the vBulletin default settings which is to open all links in new browser window. So it means it would require another vbulletin file to be edited then.

So then they would open in the same browser window. But then I'm guessing that would mean all standard HTTP links would work the same way also then and not just ed2k links.

That's right. I'm not familiar with vB code, but there probably are ways around it.
