There's one more thing better in the targetting way compared to usin popupable tables or other elements: you can have one single dictionary file for all your texts. If you allways put the popup window text with the original html, you might have to put the same popup note in many different files. Using A HREF and target to address the popup text allowes a very big number of different authors pages to address the same single dictionary file. -- Heikki Vesalainen http://www.clinet.fi/~wes/ wes@clinet.fi
