Is it possible to make two links into one:

For example, say you want to link a page so that when you submit something in a form,two browser opens up one new broswer and one being the parent browser.

Like this: <a href=" www.somewhere.com" and "www.opens_in_a_new_broswer.com">
This link opens two links at once</a>

If it possible, could you please show the coding for it?
Thanks!

A little javascript will do the trick, add the following inside the <head></head tags on your page:


<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
	function open2Links(strLink1, strLink2)
	{
		window.open(strLink2, 'NewPage', 'width=600,height=400');
		window.location = strLink1;
	}
</script>

Then in your link put:


<a href="javascript: open2Links('http://www.firstpage.com','http://www.secondpage.com');">Some Text</a>

That should do it.

Good things come to those who wait.

You could also put the first one in the href like normal, and then add the second to the "onClick" function.


<a href="http://www.snitz.com" onclick="window.open('http://forum.snitz.com/forum');">Snitz</a>

BTW: The code above is in [ code ] but it still made the second link active - and it is parsed wrong.

Thanks for you promp reply and i have test both of your method and they both work ...

however, i still have a problem. The reason i need such a links was that when a user fills out a form, when they click the submit button ... it takes them to another page thanking them for filling out the form and also opens another browser: so how can i do with the following codes:

<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="page1.asp" onclick="window.open('page2in_newbrowser.html';" onSubmit="return confirmAction()">

By the Way: I use brinkster.com for my forum and they don't give any mail service for regular members: Is there a way i could get around this and be able to send mail?

Thanx

Use the onSubmit:

<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="page1.asp" onSubmit="return confirmAction()">

At the bottom of the confirmAction() function add:

window.open('page2in_newbrowser.html');

That should do it.
