My First Movable Type Hack
For the longest I've been wishing that the "Insert Link" button on Movable Type's "new entry" page could create links that open in a new window, and save me the trouble of adding TARGET="_blank" to everything. Today I finally sat down and figured out how to make this happen. For anyone who might be interested, I just grabbed mt.js from my mt-static folder and changed line 163 from
setSelection(e, '<a href="' + my_link + '">' + str + '</a>');
to
setSelection(e, '<a target="_blank" href="' + my_link + '">' + str + '</a>');
I feel so smart and accomplished now! My mind is aglow with whirling transient nodes of thought, careening through a cosmic vapor of invention. (© Hedley Lamarr)

You might just want to install "HTML Area" which makes changing the target easy, as well as formatting everything else.
That's what I use.

Thanks for fixing that jsmooth. It was annoying me on the Inane Asylum.
As for HTMLArea, I agree with Hashim, it's a really great tool. I use it on my open source project too.
