Anchor Link

[bolicos]

have difference between mouse arrows when anchor link hover with _blank and normal

[emilio]

How is this different from:

a[target="_blank"]:hover {
    cursor: /* whatever you want */;
}

Yeah, this is already doable with Selectors as far as I can tell.

Some browsers can be configured (possibly with the help of optional extensions) to open a link in a new tab or new window or designated existing one…

• always
• when a certain modifier key is held down or a different mouse button is pressed
• when the destination is considered external (i. e. different scheme, domain, path or generally origin in href)
• if the destination is or appears to be in a specific file format (e. g. an image or PDF document)
• depending on the value of the rel attribute
• …

and they can be configured to discard the value of the target attribute, so it is never a necessary nor sufficient indicator.
