Hi I have an RSS feed in a block on our site, I would like stories clicked to open a new window not replace the site.
I know this is not easy but there must be a hack ???
Thanks...

If I understand you correctly, all you need to do is find this line in COM_rdfImport() from lib-common.php:
. $title . '</a>';
and make it
. $title . '</a>';
Text Formatted Code
$content = '<a href="' . $feed->articles[$i]['link'] . '">'. $title . '</a>';
and make it
Text Formatted Code
$content = '<a target="_blank" href="' . $feed->articles[$i]['link'] . '">'. $title . '</a>';

This is still not working,
any other suggestions ?
It seems I may not have the latest geeklog....
My config.php version is
// $Id: config.php,v 1.237 2006/11/04 22:46:09 dhaun Exp $
and I am using lib-common.php version
// $Id: lib-common.php,v 1.593 2006/11/04 14:57:20 dhaun Exp $
So do I need to upgrade ? I hope not I have so much custom code on the Story templates etc....

The generated HTML seems fine to me, unless I oversee something (don't know what the dot means..). What does ' class="list-feed" ' do to the formatting? Does it hide something?

Actually, the generated HTML is not fine - it's missing the story titles. All it seems to be doing is to generate empty links, i.e. <a href="..."></a>
bye, Dirk
Yes, Dirk is right
, that means you've forgotten the Text Formatted Code
' . $title . '

OK I have finally sorted this out......
replace
. $feed->articles[$i]['title'] . '</a>';
With...
. $feed->articles[$i]['title'] . '</a>';
in lib.common.php
replace
Text Formatted Code
$content = '<a href="' . $feed->articles[$i]['link'] . '">'. $feed->articles[$i]['title'] . '</a>';
With...
Text Formatted Code
$content = '<a href="' . $feed->articles[$i]['link'] . '" target="_blank" ">'. $feed->articles[$i]['title'] . '</a>';
