Linking to a page outside of my site

On my menu I want to be able to launch a page in its' own window. Like the function target_new. Not sure how to do it in the following code in my menu.

aI("text=Network Services;url=/services_network_services.html;");

TIA Larry

What if I wanted to launch a link in its' own window like below:

<a href="javascript: window.open('/myip.asp','','status=no, toolbar=no, resizable=yes, scrollbars=yes, location=no, width=700, height=300'); void('');" class="5">Your IP Address is...</a>

Thanks again.

Thanks again.

just put the javascript after the "url=" part of the aI()

So the that link would be:

Code:

aI("text=Your IP Address is...;url=javascript:window.open('/myip.asp','','status=no, toolbar=no, resizable=yes, scrollbars=yes, location=no, width=700, height=300');");

When I use that javascript code to open a new window as described above, a strange situation occurs. The new window opens properly, however, the original page goes blank and the text: [object] shows up. In FireFox, it is [object Window].

Is there a setting that should be entered to prevent the original page in the original window from changing?

Thanks,

Victor

Hi,

Why don't you try putting the function at the top of the menu data file, and then just call it in the aI string. I think it would be something like this.

Code:

fixMozillaZIndex=true; //Fixes Z-Index problem  with Mozilla browsers but causes odd scrolling problem, toggle to see if it helps
_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=150;
_subOffsetTop=2;
_subOffsetLeft=-2;

var newwindow; 
function poptastic(url) 
{ 
   newwindow=window.open(url,'name','height=300,width=700,left=100, 
  top=100,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=no,location=no,status=no'); 

} 

Then in whatever menu, in the aI string it would be

Code:

aI("text=item;url=javascript:newwindow('http://whatever/');");
