Can I have the IAB ad panels open a new window instead of in the current window?
Article ID: #000151

The system default, as well as best practice, is to open the ad inside the same browser window.

For those that would like to allow the ability to open the click in a new window, you will need to perform the following steps to enable this option:

1. In the /globals/globals.php file, add the following line:
$action_vars["allow_iab_target_window"] = "TRUE";
2. In the IAB ad codes, add the following line inside the JavaScript tags:
var server_target = "1";

Once the above has been completed, clicks on ads in the IAB sized panels will open a new window.
