Do you submit these values to a javascript function / cgi?
How are you opening the pdf currently?

jobonar

at the moment when ya click the PDF ya want it just opens in the current window like a link but i want them to open in a new window

sorry yeah it is being sent to a redirect function on order to open the link

So so you use href?

where you open the link <a href=pdfs/brochure.pdf>Brochure</a>?
If so
<a href=pdfs/brochure.pdf target=blank>Brochure</a> opens in a new window.

if not if you can paste more code it would be easier

jobonar

not using href!

i'm not entirely sure how it works i'm working off a chunk of code i got from a mate and he's away so cant ask him!! its all in javascript...

i no the target = "blank" doesnt work!

sorry for being so vague!
