Is there a way for a poster to put a link in a post that I can just click on and see? It would make it easier for me to follow the post especially posts about auction lots.
There is indeed, John. In the links bar at the top of the page, click in "General," then "Formatting Msgs," then scroll down the page to "Linking to a Stamporama Article, Posting or Another Website". There you'll find these instructions; I took a screenshot so the system wouldn't interpret the sample command line as an actual command:
The forum's link function makes it much easier for those reading the thread to access the linked item; however, doing so takes one away from the SOR page that they were viewing.
Would it be possible to have linked items open in a new window so that the SOR page and the linked item could be viewed simultaneously?
This functionality would enable, for example, comparison of a posted stamp with a reference example or an identification tool.

re: Using Link Tags in posts
Most browers now have "open in new tab" or "open in new window" when you right click on a link. Works great and gives you what you are looking for without Tim having to try to do more re-programming.
