Is there a script that I can put in the <head> tag of a page that I want to always open in a new window?
The thing is, I have a guestbook in iframes, and the 'view guestbook' link is obviously easy to open in a new window, but the submit button is automatically submitting the form and opening the next page over the guestbook, making you leave the site. I want the guestbook form to stay open, and the next page to come up in a new window but I don't know of anything I can do to the submit button to make it do that.
So I have a script that you can use to make a page unopenable in frames, it always forces a new window, can I some how use that for my purposes? It would work in this situation if the browser was trying to open it in a frame, but it's not, just full size in the existing window.
Here's the script I'm talking about...
if (top.location != self.location) {
top.location.replace(self.location)
}
Simple stuff, I know, but can I make it do what I need it to? Again, I just want to put it at the top of a page so that page always opens in a new window, not the same window it was linked from.
