Magic TARGET names
These names all begin with the underscore character. Any targeted window name beginning with underscore which is not one of these names, will be ignored.
TARGET="_blank"
This target will cause the link to always be loaded in a new blank window. This window is not named.
TARGET="_self"
This target causes the link to always load in the same window the anchor was clicked in. This is useful for overriding a globally assigned BASE target.
TARGET="_parent"
This target makes the link load in the immediate FRAMESET parent of this document. This defaults to acting like "_self" if the document has no parent.
TARGET="_top"
This target makes the link load in the full body of the window. This defaults to acting like "_self" if the document is already at the top. It is useful for breaking out of an arbitrarily deep FRAME nesting.
in addition to this, i believe you can use target="_main" too. give _top, _main, _parent a go and see what happens. i have no clue on the platform portability of these, hyma is the resident forum king on standards compliance, so hopefully he'll be able to help you out when he reads this post.

Thanks for that - I have managed to solve the problem with a javacript call on the index page - to give it a name so I can refence it from the popup windowDr Sigmund Mohammad wrote:Magic TARGET names
