Oh, this last bit is a dirty trick! You write message URL http://www.checkpoint.com target="_blank without a trailing quote and that may give you <a href="http://www.checkpoint.com target="_blank"> in your HTML. Dirty, dirty! Better: You modify the Webworks Style which is handling the hyperlinks (Marker Style "GotoLinkOpen") to detect that you are creating an 'external' link (check for "http://"; in the marker text) and if that is the case add the target attribute. - Michael -- _______________________________________________________________ Michael M?ller-Hillebrand: Dokumentations-Technologien Adobe Certified Expert, FrameMaker L?sungen und Training, FrameScript, XML/XSL, Unicode http://cap-studio.de/ -- Tel. +49 (9131) 28747
