Hello there,
Can someone tell me how to enable your website to use the browsers forward and back while navigating through a website? When I click on my hyper link and want to revisit the page I was just on(within my site), I have to click the X on the browser to close to get back where I was. So basically my website opens multipul browser sessions. I know this is due to my building of the site dhh!
thanks much!!

I think I know what you mean.

You need to specify which frame the link is meant to open with.

Like this:

<a href="mypage.htm" target="myframe">click here</a>

Otherwise the browser opens the link in the wrong place.

Is that what you meant?

Hello,
If I click on a link(example the link is to a file called *.htm) that is on my home page, it opens that link, however it opens another IE session to do so. With this happening, I'm unable to use the browsers forward and back to navigate through my web site. I have to keep closing or Xing out of pages. I know it's confusing typing it out yet seem simple to fix.
thanks!!

I just figured it out. Evidently when I created the link I specified a target. I cleard out the target and alls well. I noticed one of my links was performing correctly so I took a look at the properties and verified it to the ones that were not and noticed the mistake. Thanks anyway:0)

That's what I meant.

The "target" section is the culprit.

You probably had something like:

<a href="this.htm" target="_blank">

_blank
_top

and others which start with _, are special.
