Hi,

when i try to insert a link to an external site, target and title attributes are ignored.

For example, is impossible to use target=_blank.

Thanks

Install the package from [1] and verify. Details at http://helpx.adobe.com/experience-manager/kb/target-attribut-issue-tag.html

To enable target="_blank" and title in AEM's Rich Text Editor (RTE):

Update RTE Configuration: Modify the RTE config to allow these attributes (in the editorconfig file).
Check HTML Sanitization: Ensure the HTML sanitizer isn't stripping out these attributes.
Use Source Code View: Manually add the attributes in the source code view as a temporary solution.

These steps should allow the external link attributes to work as expected.

By default these tags are not allowed. You might want to adapt the /libs/cq/xssprotection/config.xml file in your repository (this is 5.6.1, but the path likely hasn't changed in 6.0)
