    Hi guys,
    I've placed some ads on a page which is inside a framset. How do you adivce changing the code so that the links break out of the framset?

    Regards,
    Mocara

    <a href="whatever" display="_blank">link text</a>

    Are you sure you'd want to do that? I have a few pages that are frames pages. I let mine open in the main frame. That way they stay in your site rather then being directed away. They don't have to hit the back button to get back to you.

    The command SEbasic recommended works in standard text links in html and makes the target link open in a new browser page but I'm not sure if it will work with the php call for the ad? Is there any easy way to modify the php to make the link open in a new page?

    I think a target="_top" would be a better option, don't you?

    I think that opening an ad link in a frame would be confusing (not to mention annoying) to your visitors. Perhaps I just think it's silly to try and "trap" people from clicking off your site. ;)

    I don't think it's really trying to trap them. I know when I'm surfing looking for something I might see a link on a site that looks interesting but don't necessarily want to leave the website yet. To me it's anoying to have to hit the back button sometimes multiple times to get back to where you were. Actually my first preference for my site as well as when I'm surfing is to have links open in new pages. That's just my preference though. I wish there were a way to do that with teh ad network links. Maybe there is but I just can't figure out how?
