[TYPO3-english] external link in menu

[Stefan Kaufmann]

Hi Mikel and List,

Thank you for this suggestion,but it does not solve the issue. Leaving 
the field blank (not entering _top or _blank) has the same effect: The 
page where the 'external url page' is called first. Only after a second 
click the user is forwarded to the external url.

I am looking for a solution on how to include a direct link to an 
external url into the menu.


My TS setup for the menu:

menu = HMENU
menu {
     1 = TMENU
     1 {
         wrap = <ul>|</ul>

         NO = 1
         NO {
             ATagTitle {
                 field = title
                 fieldRequired = nav_title
             }

             wrapItemAndSub = <li>|</li>

             stdWrap.htmlSpecialChars = 1
         }

     }
}
