I'm using a wiki based on the wikimedia engine, i.e same wiki technology used by wikipedia.

How do I code a link in the wiki language that will open the target URL in a new window or tab. Essentially, I want the wiki language equivalent of:

<a href="http://www.google.com" target="new">Google</a>

  • Thanks, but that doesn't do what I'm looking for. That syntax opens the target page in the same tab; I want to figure out the wiki syntax to open the page in a new tab. – Carl Parker Feb 27 '13 at 02:26
