See attached pic.

Good luck with your exams Marky

Another GREAT idea! That will save me a lot of coding that isn't needed

Thanks for the Luck lol

You're welcome

Thanks for coding such a useful plugin. This is definitely one of my fave's.

One feature that would be cool (and I'm sure you've thought about it for your next release) would be to have the link opening options on a per link basis instead of global.

Hey guys....
Im not trying to convince you or anything... but comeon - you KNOW in your hearts you want to vote for this modification for mod of the month lol

In other news... support will be a little slow for a bit as for about a month from this day forward, I will be studying hard for my GCSE's, so if you really need help, you would probably get a faster response by contacting me via PM. I will be sure to keep checking vbulletin.org

Thanks,

Marky

P.S VOTE MENU CONTROL ahem...
