First off, this post should be in XML, HTML, Javascript, Web and CGI.

Second, I'll try to answer. You can use the target attribute in html having something like <a href="http://google.com" target="google">google</a>. If you really want to use javascript, open function in a window object covers, i guess. <a href="" onclick="window.open('http://google.com');">google</a>

If you want to use JavaScript outside of the HTML tags, you can make the JavaScript code block in the HEAD section of your HTML code and do this:

<script language="javascript">
function pop_up()
{
     window.open("http://www.google.com", "", attributes);
}
</script>

You can then do this in the HTML code:

<a href="" onclick="javascript:pop_up()">www.google.com</a>

Here are some attributes that you an use for the window.open() method:

width - width of the pop-up window

height - height of the pop-up window

location - Shows the address bar in the pop-up window (set to true or false)

menubar - Shows the menu bar in the pop-up window (set to true or false)

resizeable - Enables or disables manual resizing of the pop-up window (set to true or false)

scrollbars - Enables or disables the scrollbars (set to true or false)

status - Enables or disables the status bar (set to true or false)

titlebar - Enables or disables the titlebar (set to true or false)

toolbar - Enables or disables the toolbar (set to true or false)

This seems like a lot but it gives you full control over how the pop-up window appears.
