My computer is a piece of junk.

That being said, I need help. And please, read the entire message before saying this is in the wrong topic.

When I find a flash movie I like, I save it to my computer so that I don't have to wait 10 billion hours for it to load anymore. My computer refuses to play them anymore unless I put them on an HTML page, which I've managed to do by staying up till four AM.

The thing is, now I'm putting a link to all those files an another page I made. Because I'm lazy, I'd rather not have to right-click and "open a new window" over and over again. I'd also like for the window to open to a certain size.

Easy, right? Well, I have a problem with that. I want to click on an image for it to do that. Now, normally, I would just use the code on page four of the Javascript section. The thing is, if I understand the HTML correctly (which I probably don't), it looks like I can only have one pop-up window if I want to use an image to link to it.

Can anyone help me, or did I totally confuse you?

Seeing as how it's been a week, and there hasn't been so much as a "I have no zarking clue," I feel I should perhaps bump this, to make it a bit more noticable, or something like that. If I remember correctly, this is not against the rules. Any help at all is appreciated.

so do you want multiple pages to pop-up in one image link? also, if no one answered in a week, then it's safe to assume that no one knows the answer ;) and then if someone replied with "i have no clue" that mods would just delete that post because it doesn't help. so can you explain what you want the link to do more? because the code Lissa provided on that page should work unless you want it to do something special.

that code is only for one html page, try this thread:

*feels a bit embarassed* Ah, sorry. I'm just one of those people that likes to be acknowledged, despite the fact that I had seen how many people had viewed the topic. *blinks* I apologize if it sounded like I was being sarcastic in that last sentence.

Anyway, I think it's because I used to go to a forum where pointless posts were almost encouraged.

Anyway, thank you. ^_^;;;

I just checked that link, and after messing with my page a bit, I realized that I had made my question unnessessarily long, and that I could have easily said that I want ImageA to go to Page1, ImageB to go to Link2, and ImageC to go to Link3, but I want them all to open up in a pop-up window. I knew you could do it with text links, but I wasn't sure about images. Thankfully, the answer is yes after all.

I've also realized that Netscape Composer isn't that great for people trying to make web pages, because it's much easier to learn HTML from the beginning so that you don't get confused too much by simple things like that.

INCONCEIVABLE!!!!

Yeah notepad is good. Personally I use cutehtml because it has line numbers and you can open a bunch of files at the same time, save them all at once, much easier than having to open, save and close, open, save and close

And yes you're right, much better to learn from scratch so you can fix problems that arise and fiddle with codes :)
