[ user@example.com ] [ mail-to hyperlink ] [ FP Nav Bars ] [ pop-up link example ] [ link to Pop-up ]
First, open a page and type some text. Use Use this text to create a normal link to a pop-up window. Using Jimco's Spawn, (download from
Jimco Software*) this link will be similar to:
[this is all on one line]
<a href="/fp/"
onclick="spawnJimcoPopup('/fp/','npas','toolbar=no,location=no,
directories=no,status=yes,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes',
'625','790','center','center','pixel');return false;">link text</a>
Highlight and Copy (Ctrl+C) the function name and parameters, that is:
[again, all this should be on one line]
spawnJimcoPopup('/fp/','npas','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=yes,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=yes','625','790','center','center','pixel');
- Switch to Navigation View
- Right-Click on the Home Page, and choose Add External Page or Add Existing Page (depends on version of FrontPage)
- In the Address box, type:
javascript: then Ctrl+V , that is paste in the function and parameter list.
- Click OK
- Change the text in the new yellow box (with a globe in the bottom
left) to whatever should be displayed in the link.
- Go back to your page and delete the temporary link.
The finished link bar will resemble:
[ user@example.com ] [ mail-to hyperlink ] [ FP Nav Bars ] [ pop-up link example ] [ link to Pop-up ]
Every page that uses this link bar must have the pop-up javascript
included in the <head> section. Or place the code in an external .js
file, and link every page to the .js file.
Example:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript" src="rxsprogs.js"></script>
which should be placed in the <head> of every page.
