Dreamweaver help! (1 Viewer)

[Janine]

Hi, I was wondering if any people familiar with dreamweaver and HTML could help me, please excuse my stupidity!

I'm trying to create a website for a major uni assignment. A major part of our websits is the links..I've created all the links and they work, but when I click on them, they only open up within a small frame..how can I get the links to work, so that when I click on them, the link will come up as an entirely new page?!

Any help would be HUGELY appreciated!

Thanks

In Dreamweaver, when you set all the link information, set the 'target' to '_blank'.

If you're editing the code directly, it would look something like:

<a href="http://www.website.com/page.html" target="_blank">

Ok, I need more help..

I really need to know how to put pictures into the space that I actually WANT them to go in!

I've created a page that has the masthead at the top, links down the left hand panel, and some news stories in the middle..I need to put some images down the right hand side, but I have absolutely no idea how to! Whenever I go to insert a picture, it just inserts it in some random place in the middle of the page.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!

Thanks,

What about creating a column on the right hand side of your table?

Eg

| left |      middle     |    right     |
|       |                      |     is        |
|       |  goes here    |  where    |
|       |                      |  photos   |
|       |                      |   go         |
|       |                      |                |

Thanks again guys.

Excuse my ignorance, but what do I press/where do I go in Dreamweaver to create the table? (I'm using dreamweaver 2004 version...)

hmm i since you're using frames, you could always make another one in the middle bit
and drop them there...
