Is there a way to have a link open in new browser page instead of taking you away from your site and having to hit the back botton

Richard - You can specify how your links open, click the Links tool (top menu bar) and check the options near the bottom of the box under where you create your links. I love deadlines. I like the whooshing sound they make as they fly by. (Douglas Adams)

SirAGE :: Don't take this the wrong way please BUT us VSD users dont know about code We are using WYSIWYG so we dont see " Insert the _blank tag into the <a href _blank tag... " and have no idea of how to initiate it generally UNLESS one has progressed past the BEGINNER stage.

The question suggest this is a beginner

Richard as Paintbrush said use the links tool, and from the drop down menu go to TARGET and select I think its new window blank, but you can keep changing it and previewing until you select the option which suits you best,,,, default, or same frame self will open in the tab you are in.
