FlyerTalk LIve launching with current browser?
Since the Starwood chat Thurs night, I've noticed that when I click on the FlyerTalk Live link above the forums list on the main page, that instead of the previous process of launching the login page for digichat in a new browser window (leaving the forums window still available), it now launches within the same browser window, which requires you to manually open a new browser window and go back to the forums if you want to read thru them while in chat.
Is there a reason for this change?

speaking of which, the chat room is still setup for "Live Chat" mode:
Can someone please reset the Live Chat back to "normal" mode? Thanks.
- the default room is Live Chat, not The Buzz
- Live Chat is moderated
- The "Welcome to FT Live, this is a moderated chat..........." message pops up every 15 minutes or so.

Nope it's still launching in the same browser window... the pblm in the chat room in terms of throwing you into the moderated room by default is fixed, and I presume the irritating "this is a moderated chat" recurring message has stopped - but I still have to open another browser session manually if I click on the link to FlyerTalk Live...

svpii, a workaround is to click your right button of the mouse, and you will see a menu, one of which is to 'open in new window' if you are using MS Internet Explorer. Netscape will also give you a similar choice with the right mouse button.
