There are two ways you can do this (and you can find more information on any number of websites, it just takes a little looking). The first way, which is to use a normal HTML link is probably superior. I'll explain why after I give the code.

You need to create your code with your regular URL for the page you want to be referred to, and a target=_blank (or some other name, but _blank is a standard). This will create the link in a new window.

The second way is to use a Javascript, which may or may not work, I haven't tried it in the forums. Here's the code to insert:

<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
<!-- hide

function openNewWindow() {
popupWin = window.open('http://your.url.here/',
'open_window',
'menubar,toolbar,location,directories,status,scrollbars,resizable,dependent,width=640,height=480,left=0,top=0')
}

// done hiding -->

</script>

And the part that creates your link:

<a href=&quot;javascript:eek:penNewWindow();&quot;>Your URL description text here</a>

The second method does more of what you want, but again, I'm not sure how the forum will handle it. (hopefully it shows correctly!)

Good luck,

Z.
