Hi, I am being a bit thick as regards ‘spawn new window’. I wish to have a text link clicked that opens a window to show a page from an external site. I want the window to close and the user to still be on my site. Any chance of a step by step breakdown? I tried SNW and using ‘other’ but when I checked things out on the browser everything left my website. Cheers if you can help or point me to a simple method.

Why don’t you just select the text, go to “Edit > Hyperlink” and then choose the page you want to link to and then add a “Title” and then for “Target” select “_blank” from the drop-down?
I’ve done the blank thing, Dan but really wish I could get the window smaller and blank out the space around so that only the webpage is visible. Also, I am trying the scripty lightbox 2 and would love to have colour around my pics in the box rather than black - is that possible?
Didn’t manage to get a webpage coming into my site at the size and dimensions of my choosing. But thanks to a post by walter to a chap call joseph I managed to change the scriptylightbox2 box to a nice blue colour …
Sure. Create the following style (probably easiest to copy and paste this into the Before /head portion of the Page / HTML Markup dialog):
.overlay {
background-color: #fff !important;
}
That’s going to give you a white background (so pick the color you like and add it as a hex color). If you look at the CSS that the Action creates in the head of your page, you may notice other things you want to fiddle with. Using the !important keyword within the definition of the rule will cause it to override the Action-generated settings, even if those settings are inserted into the head of the page after your hand-written rule. Usually it’s “Last Rule Wins”.
