What I'd like is the ability NOT to open a new window when downloading a file, regardless of the target attribute. It is very annoying when you click on a link to a pdf file and a blank window pops up obscuring the directory you were going to put it in. I know you can use Object > Link > Download target but that is tedious and you can't tell in advance if it's necessary. I can't see why you'd need to open a new window unless you are going to put something in it. -- _ |_|. _ Richard Porter http://www.minijem.plus.com/ |\_||_ mailto:[email protected] Disclaimer: Please imagine about 50 lines of pointless clutter.
