I found that when the default popup option: let internet explorer decide how pop-ups should open
is checked, IE9 opens some popups in new tab and others in a new Window... Sounds coherent to the option... But the question is, how does IE decide?
I have two links:
<a href="http://www.google.com" target="_blank">Link to google</a>
<a href="/somewhereOnMySite/test.html" target="_blank">Link to some other page</a>
The first one (Google) will open in a new Window, whereas the second one opens on a new tab...
I thought I should look for these rules, it just seems that pages on the same site get a tab and external links get a new window... Is there any documentation that can confirm this or have some more elaborate description?

What happens with JavaScript
window.open(...)
? The same external/relative difference? – MrWhite – 2014-02-07T15:39:41.717Don't think that Javascript is affected by that, just the

links... It's not that I want to change some behaviour, in fact we need the<a>
notation because of popup blockers in the company, but I hate it when I get asked about what a feature does and I cannot have a precise answer... – Martin – 2014-02-07T15:45:24.457
