Can "Ads by Google" (when clicked on), be opened automatically in a new window? At the moment they overwrite Simsig. Barry Barry, Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Last edited: 03/07/2012 at 02:51 by BarryM Log in to reply |

Can you explain, perhaps with a screenshot? I can't click on the links as it's against the Adsense policies.

I think what he means is the when you click on the ad it opens up the page over the top of the SimSig page, rather than as a new tab/window in parallel to the SimSig page. Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply |

Ctrl+click also works for those of us on laptops with no middle mouse button!

So nothing is actually wrong: ads open in the same window but you'd prefer a separate tab? I'm not sure I can change it anyway as the code is served from Google, not here.
