title: Links within XPage Mobile Controls opening in same tab on iPad
body: <p>I have to create a simple XPages application for iOS devices so want to use the XPages Mobile Controls which come with the Extension Library in 8.5.3 UP1.
  On one of the pages, I need the users to be able to open links in new tabs, but I've found that even with the link target set to _blank, the links are opening in the same tab when opened on the iPad.  It works fine using Chrome on my laptop - opening in a new tab.   If I just create a simple XPage (not using the Single Page App control) with the same link control on it, the link opens ok in a separate tab on the iPad.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any way to try and force the link into a new tab if I use the Mobile controls?</p>
  
  <p>This is code from a simple test xpage - which results in the link opening in the same tab when I test it on an iPad:</p>

                  &lt;/xp:link&gt;

              &lt;xe:djxmHeading id="djxmHeading1" label="Home"&gt;
              &lt;/xe:djxmHeading&gt;
          &lt;/xe:appPage&gt;
      &lt;/xe:singlePageApp&gt;
  
  &lt;/xp:view&gt;
