    Is there a way to force new pages in a link to be opened in the same browser window? For some reason the link to my vB forum always comes up in a new windos, I don't want this.

    Use the target attribute:

    <a href="http://www.google.com" target="_top">Open Google in the same page</a>

    you could use target="_self" or specify no target at all and it will open in the same window by default,

    to get links posted on your vB forum

    OPEN: includes/class_bbcode.php

    FIND:
    		// standard URL hyperlink
		return "<a href=\"$rightlink\" target=\"_blank\">$text</a>";
    Code (markup):
    REPLACE WITH:
    		// standard URL hyperlink
		return "<a href=\"$rightlink\">$text</a>";
    Code (markup):
