However, I am a designer that understands coding for "cut and paste" application - but am basically out of my element if I have to modify scripts to any large degree. Thus, my problem... getting Kevin's solution to work with the login script that I am using on my site: <i><b>Login Area</b></i> <i><b>UserID:</b></i> <i><b>Password:</b></i> Kevin's solution that works on my page: <a href="my_targeted_url" rel="nofollow">click here</a> Any assistance combining these would be greatly appreciated. Just a note on the slight change to Kevin's code: with onclick, I ended up with a basic "self contained" popup window - while onleftclick gave me a standard resizable browser window with access to all the browser functions (back, forward, etc)... don't know why it makes a difference, but it does.

If yes, try replacing the typographic quotes for the window.open parameters by normal single quotes. This worked for me. Alex, have you copied the code from this page?

It contines to open as a default blank. Below is the code I used. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
