How to make third party links in index tabs open in new page

Hi guys,

I am hoping someone can help me with this.

My site is a wordpress site and one of the things I am trying to do is add tabs to my index to third party sites using my affiliate links. I can actually achieve this with no problem using the build menu feature in the wordpress back office, but when clicked on, it takes the visitor away from my site... ideally, I want the link to open on a new page thereby leaving my site open in the visitors browser.. any ideas?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Graham

    What do you mean a "new page"? A new browser tab or that your site will be wrapped around the other site?

    Step 1: Expand the Screen Options. On your Appearance > Menus page, click the 'Screen Options' link in the top right corner.
    Step 2:Enable the 'Link Target' option. Within the Screen Options page you will see a 'Link Target' checkbox. ...
