    Default Open Links in New Window

    Hi,
    I'd like to know 2 things please:

    1-How can I make it so that a followed link from my page opens in another
    window?

    2-Is there any way to apply this to ALL the links on my site (globally or at
    least per page) or do I have to edit every single link?

    Thanks.

    refer to [url]http://www.publishermvps.com/Default.aspx?tabid=30[/url] - item 8 I

    and it is a function specific to the link so it is set on each link
    individually.

    Hi David,

    Thanks again for the pointer. I have one question: In the line(s) given
    below am I correct to think that all I have to do is put my address in the
    [url]http://www.domain.com[/url] spot, or do I have to change anything else? ie: is
    this the full hypertext line and I put the target after the target= place
    like" =http://www.intendedtarget.com

    Thanks


    <a target="_blank" href="http://www.domain.com">Link Text</a>

    To re-use the window you launched on each target use:

    <a target="_display" href="http://www.domain.com">Link Text</a>

    the URL you want the link to go to is what goes in the href=" " string.

    target="_blank" is what tells the link ( the a href ) to spawn a new window.

    Thanks. I've tried to get it to work but I guess I'm not getting the syntax
    right.

    How would the complete hyperlink be entered if my domain is [url]www.me.com[/url] and
    I'm linking to [url]www.them.com?[/url]

    Thanks

    your domain is irrelevant. I think you're stuck on that.

    paste the following into an html code fragment and you've got a link...

    <a target="_blank" href="http://www.them.com">Click Here to visit
    them.com</a>

    Thanks.

    It's so obvious now!
    I was confused with another explanation using "my domain" and "their
    domain".
