    Default Go to URL open in blank window HELP!

    Hi,
    Why cant I specify a new or blank browser window when usin dreamweaver's "Go
    To URL" behaivour?

    If i go into the code and replace
    "MM_goToURL('parent','filename.asp');return document.MM_returnValue")
    with:
    If i go into the code and replace "MM_goToURL('blank','filename.asp');return
    document.MM_returnValue")

    It does not work!

    Any ideas??

    Cheers in advance

    Tom

    Why do you need to use JS for this when you can just make a normal link with
    a "_blank" target?

    Because there is no hyperlink for the user to press
    Im attaching the javascript behaivour to the onLoad command inside the body
    tag, so when the page loads, a seperate window will display

    Cheers

    Then use the "Open Browser Window" behavior, and attach it to the onLoad
    event in the <body> tag as before.

    try:
    window.open(theLocation,windowName,features)

    or just
    window.open(theLocation,windowName)
    if you dont mind having a standard window opening!

    Don't use MM_goToURL

    Use MM_openBrWindow
