tracking codes and target="_blank"

target="_blank" does not work (in any browser) for a link (URL)which contains a tracking code. Is this something which is a common nuance? Does anyone know how i can get round this.
Many Thanks. Paul.

Re: tracking codes and target="_blank"

do you have an example? target="" should be respected unless the browser settings are modified not to open new windows/new tabs...

Re: tracking codes and target="_blank"

here is an example

http://www.equanet.com/showcases/adobe/

there is a link near the bottom of this page under 'downloads'.
The link is tracked and does not open up in a new browser even tho its target="_blank".

Re: tracking codes and target="_blank"

The code for "downloads" is missing =
<p><a href="http://www.adobe.com/uk/downloads/?trackingid=EEMTQ" target"_blank">Experience the Latest Adobe CS4 Products with Downloadable Trial Versions</a></p>

so try this:-
<p><a href="http://www.adobe.com/uk/downloads/?trackingid=EEMTQ" target="_blank">Experience the Latest Adobe CS4 Products with Downloadable Trial Versions</a></p>
