Open link in new window

message from Jon02ski on 24 Jul 2004
I need to set my link to open in a new window, instead of opening in the same window. Make sense? How do I do this?

target="myWindow"

It doesn't matter what you call it. You could just as easily call it
target="monkeybutt". If a window with that name doesn't already exist, one
will be opened. If you opened it once and the user clicks another link with
the same target, the new link will open in the previously opened window.
Using target="_blank" will always open a new window.

I used "myWindow" but any value will do.
It is better than using "_blank" because "_blank" opens a *new* window each
time the link is clicked.
With "myWindow" (or anything else), the link opens in the *same* window each
time the user clicks on it.
