heres your code

Code:

<option value="http://www.dabearz.com/forums/" target="_blank">Bears/DaBears</option>

<option value="http://www.chicagobears.com/">Bears/Team Site</option>

<option value="http://forums.bengalszone.com/">Bengals/BengalsZone</option>

You'll see that there are some errors in your code, if you look at what you need to have shown below, i will highlight in red the errors in your code which you'll need to delete for your menu to open in a new window

So this is what it should look like

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

and this is where you've gone wrong, highlighted in red

<div id="drop_box_nav"><form action="#" onsubmit="return go_nav();"><select name="my_links" id="my_links" align="center">
<option value="http://www.dabearz.com/forums/" target="_blank" >Bears/DaBears</option>
<option value="http://www.chicagobears.com/">Bears/Team Site</option>
<option value="http://forums.bengalszone.com/">Bengals/BengalsZone</option>

You seem to have a forward slash "/" at the end of your urls, Delete that and the target="_blank" should work ;)

Yeah, I'd thought of that and removed them. Tried it again just now. Same result. Mind-boggling...

The code supplied (to make a clicked url open in a new browser window) obviously works generally ....just not in this situation.

If it helps, I'm using this code in a 'BB Code' module on the CMPS homepage of my forum. For whatever reason, it isn't working.

UK - I've got 4 different modules set up on my CMPS page using your mod here - it's great, but the code snippet still isn't resulting in url's opening in a separate window. I know it should, but it doesn't. I thought maybe because I had them set up as 'bb modules' that this might be the issue, but even when I convert them to 'php modules', the result is the same, clicking on a url takes me away from my site, it does not open a new browser window.

Help :)

I need one of you javascript experts to help figure out how to get the urls to open in a new window in this mod! I've done some google-hunting, and found lots of info, but it's mind-boggling to someone not javascript savvy...

Installed, but also NOT open link in new tab.
Tried with and without / in the end of link, but it is same...link open in same window.
I think that is something within javascript where should be fix that.

Did you copy the 1st code into a new file called subnav.js ?? and uploaded this to your forum root?? Or use the one in the zip file ;) ?

The problem you have is the HTML code part (the second code ) cannot see the javascript file in your forums root (subnav.js)

Nice forum by the way :up:

Good man, installed... I love it.

The only problem that I have, is that doesn't open in a new browser window. And I am using this:

PHP Code:


		
			
<div id="drop_box_nav">
<form action="#" onsubmit="return go_nav();">
<select name="my_links" id="my_links">
  <option value="http://www.google.com" target="_blank">Google</option>
  <option value="http://www.google.com" target="_blank">Google</option>
  <option value="http://www.google.com" target="_blank">Google</option>
  <option value="http://www.google.com" target="_blank">Google</option>
</select>
&nbsp;&nbsp;
<input type="submit" name="sub_nav" id="sub_nav" value="Go to URL" />
</form>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="subnav.js"></script>

Hi guys, I need your help
I uploaded the file in the root ... subnav.js
I opened a new forum and I have included in the description field

HTML Code:

<div id="drop_box_nav">

<form action="#" onsubmit="return go_nav();">

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

<option value="http://www.GOOGLE.com" target="_blank">GOOGLE</option>

</select>

&nbsp;&nbsp;

<input type="submit" name="sub_nav" id="sub_nav" value="Go to URL" />

</form>

</div>

<script type="text/javascript" src="subnav.js"></script>

on index the dropdown menu is visible, I see all the sub-menus, but if you click on "Go to URL" reload the forum index

why? can anyone help me please?

thanks
