Setting A Target For Your Page - MACROMEDIA CONTRIBUTE-USING CONTRIBUTE Use Manual

Setting a target for your page

You can specify where a linked page opens by creating a target for the link. For example, you can
indicate that your linked document opens in a new window, instead of opening in the current
window.
If you create a link in a document with frames, you can indicate which frame, or target, displays
the new content. For more information about creating targets for frames, see "Specifying a target
frame for a link" on page 123.
Note: You cannot control where an e-mail link opens. An e-mail link always launches an e-mail message in your
default e-mail application.
You can specify the target when you create the link (see "Setting a target for a new link" on
page 111) or you can edit an existing link to change or add the target (see "Setting a target for an
existing link" on page 112).
Setting a target for a new link
