Heh. Ok, I guess that makes sense. Nice to know it's available though.
Now how about my math tag problem? ;-)

Is there wiki code to be able to open links in a new window(external links)?
No, this has generally been considered to be a Bad Idea, since this should be up to the user and their browser-interface, rather than the website they are viewing. (I believe shift-click, ctrl-click and the middle mouse button allow users of some browsers to open a link in either a new window or a new tab).
If you really really want to hack the code and insert one, you need to look at includes/Skin.php: the function that generates ext. links is "makeExternalLink()", or you could add it in "getExternalLinkAttributes()"
