No argument that it is not difficult to open a new window, but the point is that the way it works now reduces the usability of the search result pages. Opening a new window will require extra clicks or an extra keypress to search the site. My browser is using default settings, so anybody using IE6 will have the same hassles.
Here's my suggestions:
1: Fix the search page result page so that it behaves similar to XOOPS 1.3.8. This means that the search results page doesn't expire when I click on one of the results.
Maybe this cannot be done because of the "post/get" usage in the search form. If so, then at least do this...
2. Open a new browser window for me when I click on a link in the search results by adding a target='_blank' to the <a> tag.
I'm just trying to save myself and other users the hassle of using extra hands or extra clicks to search a Xoops2 site.
