Can I have links open in a new browser window?

Is it possible to have links to pages outside of my website to open in a new browser window?
I've created a podcast for my students to listen to.
I've also created a kind of fill-in-the-blank activity to go along with that podcast, but that activity requires a different window.
I want my students to listen to the podcast and do the fill-in at the same time.
So, I'd like for the students to open the link to the fill-in and then click on the podcast on the original page.
Advice?

changing podcast links is a bit difficult - but here is a general link of how to open windows in a new window:

  • Link to open up in new browser window

    Hi everyone,
    I need a link to open up in a new browser window but don't want to use the target attribute as it's deprecated. Can someone tell me if Dreamweaver has any built-in javascript behaviours that will do this for me?
    Appreciate any help.

    Yes, it's called Open Browser Window: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Dreamweaver/10.0_Using/WSc78c5058ca073340dcda9110b1f693f21-7b0 7a.html.
    A more sophisticated version is my SmartLink extension, which is available free from http://foundationphp.com/tools/.

  • Add option to open swf in new browser window

    Hello,
    I have a small animation on a webpage. The properties are to
    small to view all details. Can I add functionality to this swf that
    the user can open the swf file into a new browser window. This
    allows then for scaling to what ever size is appropriate.
    Any suggestions??
    Thanks!

  • Open QT In New Browser Window - Followup Q For Quicktime Kirk

    Quicktime Kirk:
    I found a thread a few months ago (now archived) where you explained how to open a QT movie in a new browser window at specified dimensions. The example you gave was your page:
    http://homepage.mac.com/kkirkster/bushbashquiz/
    So I've got it all working and it looks great in Safari and Fireworks (thanks very much!), BUT unfortunately it does not work in Explorer. What happens in Explorer is that the window basically targets "_.self" (i.e. the parent window goes away), and when you click the "Close Window" button it closes the window and you're left with nothing.
    I know that Explorer has all kinds of bugs, but unfortunately it's popular -- esp. with the PC crowd whom I need to allow for. Do you or anyone know how to get this functionality working in Explorer???
    Thanks again.

    Yep. I just checked the link using IE for Mac. The "pop-up" window replaces the source window (not supposed to do that). Another reason to no longer use IE on a Mac.
    The javascript is valid in every other Mac browser. Just not IE, it seems.
    My PC is down (I think it really died this time) so I can't test its implementation of javascripts on a PC platform.
    And, you're correct. It doesn't work as it should when opened using IE on a Mac.
    I "borrowed" the javascript and it must contain errors that are not so obvious on the Mac OS.
    I'll look for the cause but can't promise a solution. Thank you for pointing this out. I try very hard to accommodate all browsers and OS's. This one skipped by me (no IE use in years on my Mac).
    Maybe a javascript guru can "fix" my (or IE's) sloppy page code.

  • "Go to URL" not opening in a new browser window

    We are using FrameMaker 10 and RoboHelp 9 in a Windows 7 environment.
    When we create hypertext links, we use the "Go to URL" command.  According to the FrameMaker 10 online help, this is what the command is supposed to do: "Launches browser and displays the specified Web page."
    Then we publish the content to RoboHelp's WebHelp.
    When we see the hypertext link in the WebHelp/HTML output, it looks like this: http://www.adobe.com
    When we click it, the Web page appears inside the content frame of the WebHelp.  It does not open a new browser window.
    We can manually go into the html file and look at the hypertext link.  It looks like this in the WebHelp output:
    <span class="FM_Link"><a href="http://www.adobe.com">www.adobe.com</span>
    In order to manually change the link so that it opens the Web page in a new browser window, we can edit the link as follows:
    <span class="FM_Link"><a href="http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank">www.adobe.com</span>
    After we manually edit the HTML file, save it, launch the WebHelp, and click the hypertext link...it now opens the Web page in a new browser window.
    Is there a way to create the hypertext link in FrameMaker so that the WebHelp output will open the Web page in a new browser window?
    Thank you in advance!
    Tim

    Please see the previous posts in this thread to review how you create hyperlinks in FrameMaker that open the Web page in a new browser window.
    The problem is this: If you publish the exact same file to PDF, the hyperlinks will not work.
    The properties (syntax) of the hyperlinks in PDF output need to look like this: http://www.adobe.com
    The hyperlink syntax in WebHelp (in FrameMaker) needs to look like this: http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank
    (...so when they are published to Webhelp, they look like this: "http://www.adobe.com" target="_blank")
    Other than going into either the HTML or the PDF output and manually changing each hyperlink URL syntax for the specific output, is there a syntax that opens a new browser window in both PDF and HTML with one single "Go to URL" command?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • Open portlet in new browser window

    Anyone know of a way to open a portlet, or a page containing a portlet, from a link into a new browser window? This is different than showDetailsPage, which opens in the same browser window.
    Thanks.

    I tried to do this through Item Attributes for the portlet (clicking the little pencil), where there is a radio button for "Display Options."
    One choice is: "Link That Displays Item in New Browser Window."
    (I do have something in for the "Display Name" which seems to be required to get a link.)
    However, this doesn't seem to work. No link shows.
    (It works fine for
    I have tested this with a Discoverer portlet, and also with a more generic portlet (the "Developer News" portlet in the 9iAS Community portlet provider).
    Is this broken / a bug?

  • Open url in new browser window

    Hello,
    i am looking for a possibility to open an URL in a new browser window, when the end-user clicked on a button.
    I am aware of the LinkToURL view element. Unfortunately i would prefer to use a button element instead of the LinkToURL elementl. Can anyone provide me with a solution? Maybe there is a possibility to implement the needed coding in the action assigned to the button.
