When I create a link from text to a new pop-up browser using Behaviors... with click as the command, the mouse pointer doesn't change to the finger pointing hand when placed over the text or photo. This doens't indicate to the person browsing that there is a clickable link.... Is there any fix for this

Thank
Mel

It sounds as though you should just use an ordinary text
hyperlink. Is there some problem with that?

Hi Jim and thank you for your prompt response. The problem is, if I use regular text and link it, the new browser doesn't allow you to set Attributes, like no address bar, or set the size of the new window etc, as you can in Behaviours. Is there a way to accomplish having linked text to open up in a New Window browser that can be sized and not have the address bar or scroll bars showing

Any assistance is greatly appreciated

Thank
Mel
 
How about using standard JavaScript Popup window scripts, which allows you
to create a standard link to call the JavaScript function?

Hi Thoma

sorry... I am an intermediate neophite with no code writing skills. I am part of the "no skill drag and drop" Front Page generation, hoping for a cure for my inability to write code. (This was somewhat painfull to admit, but it's the truth)

Place the following script in the <head> tag:
<script language="javascript">
<!-- hide from old browsers
function popLink(Link){
popup = window.open
(Link, "newwin","height=380,width=680,scrollbars=no,resizea
ble=no")
}
// end hiding -->
</script>

Then on your hyperlinks:

Thomas... many thanks, this is perfect. Why on earth didn't MS create this most demanded feature in FP 03? The way it's structured is the pointer doesn't turn to a hand when over an image or link, thus not indicating to the person browsing your web there is another feature to view

Why do you think MS has to create everything? Would you like them to wipe your b**t for you, too

Pathetic sarcastic remarks are nothing more than a reflection of what you are... It seems your contribution is less than a waste of space. If half your brain was awake, you would have understood a most basic question... and that is, why create a component that does half the job... (kind of like why create half a brain? Get it.)
