Hi all,

My name is Belinda, and I'm new to the forum. I'm fairly new at designing webpages using HTML (I've done some work before in FrontPage-gasp!). Anyway, I'm stumped and could really use the help of someone who knows what they are doing.

I'm making adjustments to a website designed by someone else, so the code isn't originally written as I would do it, but I don't have time to redesign the site.

Here's the problem. The page (and all pages in the site) is built as one big table filled with image pieces. Within a cell, there is an image with one or two image maps for links. I need those links to open a new window (which they already do), but I need to code for resize, add scrollbars, no toolbar, etc. I know how to do that, but not within the existing code. Here is a sample cell:

Code: [ Select ]
<tr><td valign="top"><map name="bofa2"><area shape="rect" href="acme_bofa.html" target="_blank" coords="606,1,744,113"> </map><img src="images/row9.gif" alt="" width="800" height="115" border="0" usemap="#bofa2"><br></td></tr>


How and where do I code the new window attributes?

Thank you so much for your help!!

In this code, the new window is being opened because of this attribute: target="_blank"

You will need to change the AREA tag and add it some javascript function to open a new window with custom settings.
