Curley_Boy 0 Posted April 10, 2003 Ok please don't laugh.... How do I force IE6 to open links in the same window as the one I clicked the link in? I've tried Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>'Re-use windows for launching shortcuts' but that didn't help. Share this post Link to post

You can however just drage the link to the addressbar or titlebar. Share this post Link to post
adamvjackson 0 Posted April 12, 2003 With Phoenix, you can add this line to the user.js file: Code: // Stop reusing active windows:user_pref("advanced.system.supportDDEExec", false); Share this post Link to post

adamvjackson 0 Posted April 12, 2003 A subtle hint, to use Phoenix... I don't think it's possible to do so with IE. Share this post Link to post
Curley_Boy 0 Posted April 12, 2003 I already use Phoenix 90% of the time (and a mighty fine browser it is too) However some pages (MS site and those created with Frontpage etc) refuse to display correctly or at all if you don't use a version of IE, hence my original post.

This is because those pages do not follow HTML standard. Quote: With Phoenix, you can add this line to the user.js file: Code: // Stop reusing active windows:user_pref("advanced.system.supportDDEExec", false); With Mozilla, you can simply type "about:config" into Location bar and change the value there.. I thought you could do the same in Phoenix too.. I'm not that sure though. Share this post Link to post
adamvjackson 0 Posted April 13, 2003 IIRC, about:config in all but the latest Phoenix nightly's is broken. Share this post Link to post
Mr.Guvernment 0 Posted April 13, 2003 u can't do it in IE or set it to do that - that option is designed into the web page it's self , so it is a matter of asking the maker to change his html in his page. Share this post Link to post
