Hello, I tried to find the question b4 I posted it. I have articles on my blogs that are long, but I like 'em! icon_biggrin.gif I want to create a link so that when a person clicks on it it will open up to a new window with the rest of the content. Can someone help me with this?? I see it in my head, but after I create the link, I don't know how to apply the rest of the content. Oh im so confused. icon_sad.gif

I'm not quite sure if this is exactly what you want, but to have a link open in a new browser window, you use this code:

Code:
<a href="http://yourlink.com/yourlink.html" target="_blank">
Your text here!</a>

The target="_blank" bit on the code should force the link to open in a fresh window...let me know if it works as you want it!

My monkey is pointing threateningly I'm afraid, but he's a nice fellow really icon_wink.gif

Correct me if I'm wrong, but are you trying to open them in a new window or do you want a read more feature like on my blog? Where you click on more and it goes to the full article? Your blog / website is down so I'm unable to tell what content or blogging platform you are using.

So what you really want is expanded post summaries. Expanded Post

If you use this hack, the read more only shows on the
posts that you want it to.

Can peekaboo posts also be used for the about me section? Or is there something that can be put there?

Nice. I was wondering if this was possible with blogger. I'll give it a try later.
