Simple window.open Question

[peterinwa]

This code is opening the url in a new window just as I want, but leaving the old window blank except for the message [object] in it.

<a href="javascript:window.open('http://www.xxx.com')">Click Here to Open New Window</a>

Thanks, Peter

<a href="javascript:window.open('http://www.www.com');void(0);">Click Here to Open New Window</a>

That just opens a default page...that being the case, why don't you just use a standard anchor...?

Maybe, you can use this:

I'm not sure what you're saying. Don't know what you mean by standard window... but I don't care about the dimensions. I just don't want it to open in MY window and replace my site.

Elsewhere I use this code and it works fine:

if (V==1222){window.open('http://www.xxx.com/')}

But I want it to be in an href statement.

(Of course the real url isn't xxx.)

Thanks, Peter
