Sorry for the newbie question here, but where would I get the code for a mouseover drop menu for my TOC that would open the link in a new window? Thanks in advance.

You need something like this in the <head> section:

code:

<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- hidden
function goTo()
 {
  var newUrl=document.formName.menuName.options[document.formName.menuName.selectedIndex].value;
  window.open(newUrl,'windowName','Property1,Property2');
 }
//-->
</script>
[/code]

The properties of the new window are listed on the following page:

Then in the <body> section you will need a drop down menu like this:
code:<form name="formName">
<select name="menuName">
<option selected value="http://www.yoursite.com/page1.html">Page 1
<option value="http://www.yoursite.com/page2.html">Page 2
<option valuvalue="http://www.yoursite.com/page3.html">Page 3
</select>
<input type="button" value="Go" onClick="goTo()">
</form>
[/code]
