Easy html question
hey, i was curious to know if you guys could tell me how to have a link on my homepage open up as a smaller window, with just the information pertaining to the link (pic, then some words).
or a link that may help me.
thanks

Not totally sure what you're asking. You want the link to only pop up a window with a picture and some text?
If so, something like this may work:
LINK TEXT
FILENAME would be the name of an HTML file with the pic and words in it.

<a href="#" onClick=javascript:window.open("FILENAME.html","_blank","menubar=no,width=550,height=375")>LINK TEXT</a>'You want it to be a blank window, not name it "blank".

Yes, but if you do it without sticking the # in the href and the javascript in onclick, it will leave the page you had open in the original window. IE will display [object] and FireFox will display [object Window].
Assuming you want the original page to still be displayed, don't do it that way.
I believe you're right, bja888, about using _blank instead of. Sorry about that.
