Can I point a Link Button to a new (blank) window

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:

I have tried various versions of this button and they all open just fine, but it replaces the existing page.

Is there a way to open a new page when this button is clicked?

<input type=”Button” onClick=”javascript:location=’Order.asp'”>

Thanks

Try this.
<i>
</i>&lt;input type="button" value="Click to forward" onClick="javascript:document.location.href='Order.asp'"&gt;

[INDENT]javascript:location[/INDENT]

to

[INDENT]javascript:document.location.href[/INDENT]

I still have the same result, the link replaces the existing page.

Do I need to set a Target?

I did screw up the last bit of code.

use [B]window.location.href[/B] and not[B] document.location.href[/B]

I always screw that up.
