However, using this does not open the link in a new window. target= »_blank » and target= »_new » does this, but is not XHTML valid. This very simple plugin adds a small JS file to your header to let this happen! * [rel= »external »](http://pleer.co.uk/wordpress/plugins/rel-external/) plugin homepage. * More [WordPress Plugins](http://pleer.co.uk/wordpress/plugins/). * [Facebook Comments](http://pleer.co.uk/wordpress/plugins/facebook-comments/) Plugin * [Twitter Feed](http://pleer.co.uk/wordpress/plugins/wp-twitter-feed/) Plugin * [Follow @alexmossSEO on Twitter](http://twitter.com/alexmossSEO). * [Alex Moss](http://alex-moss.co.uk/). * [Pleer SEO](http://pleer.co.uk/). ## Installation You can install this in 2 easy steps without any need for configuration: 1.
