How To: Forum Link to New Window?

How do I have a forum link open a new browser window? (instead of redirecting my users away from my site?)

Thanks -

Add target="_blank" in the code.
e.g.

Code:

<a href="index.php" target="_blank"></a>

I know that part, where do I set this in the styles? templates, etc...

For "Forum" tab edit navbar template.

This line:

HTML Code:

<li class="selected"><a class="navtab" href="{vb:raw vboptions.forumhome}.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}">{vb:rawphrase forum}</a>

Let me try again...

I made a forum which is set as a link type, which redirects to an external site (link). ie. like the Vbulletin.com, vBulletin Customization @ vBulletin.org (which opens up an external link)

My question is simply, how/what do I need to do to cause that link to open in a new window. I know the right code, just not where to set...

Thanks in advance -

Now we getting somewhere you need to edit two templates:
forumhome_forumbit_level1_post
forumhome_forumbit_level2_post

Find this line and edit it:

HTML Code:

<h2 class="forumtitle"><a href="{vb:link forum, {vb:raw forum}}">{vb:raw forum.title}</a></h2>
