[EHPweb] 3rd Party Sites

[Seth L Daugherty]

Every time I make an offsite link, I use class="offsite", which inserts the icon at the end of the link. It might look a little funny to have both the icon and an asterisk, so maybe we should either make the asterisk part of the icon or get rid of the icon all together.

If it is *all* links, I suggest we (I am willing to volunteer) write a javascript function as part of our template that does this automatically.
