VIZACT: Cannot Set Target Frame of Hyperlinks (236634)

MORE INFORMATION

To work around this problem, open the page in another application, such as FrontPage, and add a target to the hyperlink.

If you do not have another application with this functionality, you may also open the HTML page in Notepad and directly modify the HTML code. For example, if you had a link to the Microsoft homepage, it would look similar to the following:

<A href="http://www.microsoft.com/">Microsoft's Web Site</A>
				

You would need to add a target parameter to code. If you want to have this hyperlink open in a new window, you would change the code to:

<A href="http://www.microsoft.com/" target="_blank">Microsoft's Web Site</A>
				

The target attribute specifies the window or frame to which the contents are targeted. If no frame or window exists, a new window will be opened. If no target or frame is specified, the default is "_self" for a link within the same site, or "_top" for an external site. For more information on the five main target settings, please see the following table:

Target	Description	Example
Frame name	This will open the hyperlink in the frame name that you have specified.	target="main"
_blank	This will open a new window to display the page you have hyperlinked to.	target="_blank"
_self	Specifies to open the link in the same window.	target="_self"
_top	The _top target will load the link in the full body of the current window.	target="_top"
_parent	Specifies to load the link in the immediate parent of the document the link is in.	target="parent"
