Rich text editor not opening the links in new window

[Ashish_jpr]

We have using CQ5 Text component which is Rich Text Editor with link plugin. When we create a link in a table component with target=_new param it preservs this parameter in rendered html. When we use this in a para tag it drops the target=_new parameter from the rendered html.

Anyone has any idea why its happening or quick fix for this issue?

Thanks in advance

Have you read this AEM doc topic that talks about the RTE and links?

This is a known issue in 5.6.x, here is an article about this:

Hi,

We are facing the same issue in AEM 6.1 and when I checked, the XSS folder was not overlayed in apps, after overlaying it worked...so is this issue still open for newer versions ?
