target= in ListMenu
Poster: theredbaron76
Dated: Thursday June 7 2007 - 15:22:50 BST
Hello. Is it possible to target in a new windows using list based men?
Thought it was to insert an easy "target='_blank'" inside my <a href tag... but it doesn't work. It opens in my self window only.
Any idea? Here is my little code:
Code:
<tr>
<td>
<script>
_menuCloseDelay=500;
_menuOpenDelay=350;
_subOffsetTop=2;
_subOffsetLeft=-2;
with(menuStyle1=new mm_style()){
align="left";
borderwidth=1;
bordercolor="#303030";
separatorsize=1;
separatorcolor="#ffffff";
separatorpadding=1;
separatorheight=20;
fontfamily="Verdana";
fontsize="12px";
fontstyle="normal";
fontweight="normal";
offbgcolor="#303030";
offcolor="#FFFFFF";
onbgcolor="#FFFFFF";
oncolor="#303030";
padding="5px";
subimage="../images/arrow.gif";
subimagepadding=2;
}
</script>
<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="970"><tr><td valign="top" width="970">
<ul id="menulist">

Hi,
I just tested your code and it works fine. We'll need to see the actual page to figure out what's going on.

Yes, it works... but it doesn't open new browser window...
Here is my test page

Thanks in advance

Hi,
The first thing you have to do is get the newest version of the menu to test this.
I'm going to post to Milonic about it since I can't figure out the problem. It doesn't work now, but when I tried it yesterday with your pasted code, it did open in a new window.

Hello,
Was there ever a resolution to this question? I am having the same problem and my code looks to be the same. I am trying to use the listmenu in a frame of a frameset and have it update a different frame in the set. But it always updates the same frame that contains the menu. The page has a BASE target="main" tag in the HEAD section, and each list item anchor tag has target="main" specified as well. If I change the targets to "_blank" it still opens the pages in the same frame that contains the menu.
Thanks in advance,
~ Jim Fennell

Hi,
Can you give a url, please? I'm not able to find solutions if I don't have the page to test and see what's causing the problem.

I am having the same problem and do not see an answer to it here, please let us know if there is a solution for this please...
My test site is here:
http://dev2.########.com/
You will notice in the source code that many of the links in the UL of menu items have a target="_blank" attribute, but are continuing to open in the same window. I am using the ListMenu version as well. My
Thanks!
