    Do you want the entire page containing the search results to open in a window or the individual links to each search result to open in a new window?  If it's the latter, you can just edit the results.aspx page and then edit your CoreResultsWebPart.  Open the XSL Editor and you can find the <a> links in there and add target="_new" to each link to have it open in a new page.

    I am interested in the 1st option of opening the entire page containing the search results to open in a new window.  Is it possible?  I can't find any way through Search Settings or the Search Box web part.

    I don't know that there is an easy way out of the box.  You can try writing a new web part and inheriting from SearchBoxEx, but there would be quite a bit of effort involved.

    it seems like this would be an obvious setting in the OOB search box web part.  wonder why it wasn't included by MS.

    Hi Corey,

    I too have tried editing the XSL code to add target="_blank" to the href tag of the core results web part and the onclick code without success.  Let us know if you think of anything else.

    Thanks in advance!
