Hi! I have created a search engine for certain pdf files on my company's intranet but have trouble coding the links to open in a new window.
I know target = "_blank" for the <a href=".."> tag that points the user to the file is needed,
but as the link is created from a "Response.Write" command when i enter the "target = "_blank" " command in the <Href> tag it comes up with "False" any ideas??????

The following is the code i use in order to create the link.

Response.Write "<A HREF=""" & FormatURL(objFile.Path) &""">" & _
strTitle & "</A><BR>" & vbCrLf

I think that you should not use Resonse.Write but a string that is automaticly returned as plain HTML.

When you put the total HTML code into a database field, e.g. "<A HREF = "bla.htm"> and place this field as HTML into your script... just an idea...

Or use: <A HREF = "" & response.write & ">" & "_blank"

I did NOT tested the code... i always code with trial-and-error...
