Force a desktop URL Shortcut to open in new IE Browser

Hi all

This isn't a PHP question, but might be a simple one that someone can answer.

We have a desktop shortcut to a web address, but would like it to force open a fresh new IE browser.

Firefox automatically opens a new tab, but the user has only IE.

Is there something that can be added to the URL that forces a "target='_blank'" type scenario??

Simon

1.) I highly recommend that since you have 58 posts if you don't wish to irk moderators and other users to look at this page before you post...
index.php

2.) If the user only has IE then you need to set your system's default browser to IE for testing. This should be more then obvious if you're this well aware of the fact that they are two different browsers.
