ok, i have a site that has multiple frmaes, also has drop down boxes (that control the frames) and i want to put a link to another site in the drop down box, but i want it to open a new window when its selected,<br />
<br />
this is the current code <br />
<br />
<select name="Help" onChange="MM_jumpMenu('parent.frames[\'main\']',this,0)"><br />
<option selected value="gamelist_start.shtml">Choose One</option><br />
<option value="RequestContact.shtml">Contact</option><br />
<option value="http://myforums">Forums</option><br />
<option value="FAQ.shtml">Sprite FAQ</option><br />
</select><br />
<br />
<br />
can anyone help?<br />
<br />
thanks<!--content-->Not exactley sure what you are trying to achieve, too ealry in the morning for me... but it looks you are trying to rig some kinda navigation up and in frames. Can I point you in the direction of a frickin ace little number. I can't rave about this little code enough and it might help out.<br />
<br />
If the navigation you want is horizontal then check this example...<br />
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/hvmenu/horizon.htm">http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicinde ... orizon.htm</a><!-- m --><br />
<br />
If the navigation is vertical check this one out.<br />
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex1/hvmenu/index.htm">http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicinde ... /index.htm</a><!-- m --><br />
it is there on the left of the screen, slightly hidden, by the sites own text.<br />
<br />
<br />
They both run on the same source with a little tweak in one of the files to change from vertical to horizontal. The magic little thing about this number is that you can have the drop down menus cross over into another frame if you so wish. Top down or left to right. You can have as many drop down levels as you wish, change fonts, colours, widths, heights... as the site says the question is what doesn't it do. Have a look. I hope this is what you are tring to achieve... because it also lets you target the link, i.e. _parent, _blank etc etc. It is also supported by almost every major browser.<br />

like i said, i use alot of frames, and i have a drop-down box with links in it, how can i make one of those links popup in a new window<br />
<br />
right now they all just control the frames<!--content-->I have tried to view your page but I cant seem to load it. If you are ok in directing links to your existing framed pages you must be using some kinda target attribute i.e.<br />
<br />
<br />
target="name"<br />
<br />
To open in a new window the target would be _blank i.e.<br />
<br />
target="_blank"<!--content-->yes sorry about that my server is giving me hell and its being moved right now<br />
<br />
should be up in like 10 mins hopefully
<br />
<br />
<br />
i tried the target="_blank" and it did not work, someone told me it is because those wont work in a drop-down box<br />
<br />
-edit-<br />
<br />
should be working now, this is the link, i have it closed to everyone else until i have it working perfectly <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.emusanet.com/gifgoodness/index_alt.php">http://www.emusanet.com/gifgoodness/index_alt.php</a><!-- m --><br />
