RE: external sites

Hi Ceilidh,

Just ensure you put the full URL in as your HREF parameter.

Eg. linking like this:
<a href="www.microsofttraining.net">Click here</a> will not work, as browser software will assume this is a file or folder on your server.

You need to ensure there is http:// at the front of the external URL (or https:// or ftp:// or whatever the actual url is).

So this:
<a href="http://www.microsofttraining.net">Click here</a> will work.

Experiment and see the differences. You can't break anything!

Regards, Rich

Dreamweaver tip:

JumpMenu in new window

When inserting a jumpmenu to a page, the only option available for 'open in' is usually 'main window'. There would be other options available if the page was a frameset.

To change the jumpmenu to open in a new window, change the target parameter of the selectbox in your code to 'window.open()'.

eg.
<select name="menu1" onChange="MM_jumpMenu('window.open()',this,0)">
