Hi Joyce Evans:
I always thought it was a good idea to open links to other websites in a separate window, so you don't lose the visitor. If the visitor clicks on a link on your website and it does not open into a separate window, the visitor may stay in the other website for awhile, going to, say, 20 different pages. Most likely, he's not going to click on the back button 20 times to get back to your website, so you've lost the visitor or potential customer. If the link opens up into a separate window, the visitor cannot click on the back button, so he'll need to click on the exit (X) button, and voila, he's back in your website, where you want him to be.
Diego La Monica: I wonder: who should decide where open new links you or the visitors of your site? I think they should be the last ones. -- Diego La Monica Web: programmazione, standards, accessibilità e 2.0 Brainbench certified for RDBMS Concepts (transcript ID # 6653550) W3C HTML WG IWA/HWG Member Responsabile liste IWA Italy ( [EMAIL PROTECTED] ) Web Skill Profiles WG Member ( http://skillprofiles.eu ) phone +390571464992 - mobile +393337235382 MSN Messenger: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: diego.la.monica - ICQ #: 249-460-264 Web: http://diegolamonica.info ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
