Opening a new window

[Anon]

Is it possible to open a new window using php
code? How?

[Anon]

You're going to have use HTML, I think, because you're talking to browsers, after all.

Here's the code:

echo "This is a <a href=\"/directory/file.php\" target=\"_blank\">link</a> that will open up a new window for file.php in the directory directory.";

Note the escaped quote marks in the middle.

Instead of a link, is it possible to open a new window with a button? How would I do that?

[Anon]

Just make the button or image the link part:

e.g. (in straight HMTL):

<a href="your_file" target="_blank"><img border="0" height="32" width="32" src="(button.gif)"></a>

Note:
The border="0" keeps your button image from appearing with a link halo around it.

Hi,
On the web site that I am designing there is loads of Thumbnails that have been linked to a larger (photo.JPEG) file. Is it possible to use JavaScript to tell browser to open at exact dimension as the photograph.

Thanks
