URL variables truncated when outputting as link

Objective: Using Views 7.x-3.5, I want to use the title as the text, the URL as the link, and utilize a target="_blank" attribute. I don't see any way to do this unless I output the title as plain text, then re-write it outputting as a link, where I can add the target attribute. But when I do this, any URL's that had variables in them are truncated. For example, "http://www.anothersite.com/index.asp?page=147" drops the "?page=147", and always links to the home page instead. Is this a bug, or is there another way to achieve this?

    Assume as fixed. Apart from that: Link module is in Drupal core now. I'll close this issue due to inactivity for 12 years and upcoming EOL of Drupal 7 in January 2025 . While the project version for Drupal 7 will keep providing support for security issues and website breaking bug fixes for Drupal 7, we should try to minimize the open issues for Drupal 7 in the queue as much as possible. Thanks for the report and all the efforts in here. Feel free to re-open if you can provide a fix or found an additional related problem which increases the issue priority to "Critical" here.
