Link Issues

[JCO]

I've had some issues where I want links to open in a different window vs
using the same window. I have a page that has a lot of external links.
Because of this, I selected hyperlinks to open in a new window then clicked
this as the default. I then realized later that my bookmarks (on this page)
were inadvertently changed to open in a new window (which of course is
wrong).

When someone clicks a default, is that suppose to be for the page only or
entire website?

I guess, the logical thing to do (when having many links that where some
require a new window and others must remain in the same window) is evaluate
which one will save you the most time, set the defaults, then go back and
undo the links that must be different from the default.

Is this correct?

When you set the default, it applies to all links on the specific page. If you want some link to
open in a new window and other in the same window, then you must set the target value for each link
individually or just the ones that you want to open in a new window.

That's what I figured!
What exactly is the difference between "same frame" and "parent"?

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

Applies when you are actually using a frameset.

Same frame outside of a frameset does the same thing as whole page (_top) but just open a page
within the same frame as the link

Never used "parent", so I can't help there.
