I tried getting someone to do this before with no luck (see the link below).

I enclosed the same file, so you can try it out. If you can get it working properly, you can release it as a mod with my permission. I just need someone to take it to the next step. Anybody out there that can do it...

I have tried many time to do what you are trying to do, but I couldn't write a product for it.
So I made mine with manual edits. Works for me & you can easily easily add it as a vba template module. Try to get it to work with what you have, Good Luck

Hi

Are you sure you have the correct Menu entries

Code:

select name="my_links" id="my_links">

  <option value="http://www.ukbusinesslive.co.uk">UKBusinesslive Store</option>

  <option value="http://www.ukbusinesslive.co.uk/topsite">Topsite</option>

  <option value="http://www.google.com">Google</option>

  <option value="http://www.ukbusinesslive.co.uk/links/">UKBL Links</option>

Just make sure you have them as shown or send them to me in a PM and i'll take a look for you, I'm not gonna rest tonight until your Sorted :D

:D

Hi Speedy

There always a fix buddy, never give up :D

To get the link to open in a new browser window, what you do is add the target="_blank" attribute to your link tag, like this in your Menu Links area

<option value="http://www.ukbusinesslive.co.uk" target="_blank">UKBusinesslive Store</option>

If you do that to the ones that you want to open in a new window, then you don't navigate away from your site ;)

could be worth for SEO reasons adding the attribute title

so

<option value="http://www.ukbusinesslive.co.uk" target="_blank" title="UkBusinessLive Online Store">UKBusinesslive Store</option>
