I'm working with CS6 creating a web-site for a client. The client has giving me a list of Publications to display on a particuter page, which is an overview of all the books that my cleint has published. The details for each book are on individual pages, which I've already created and have URL's for. The idea is to look at the overview page and if you desire, select a book title to view additional details about that particular book.
For this Overview page I've created a classic text block that contains several URL links.
Example: "This is information about book 1: URL LINK to BOOK 1 title. Great Press Book Publisher, 2010.
This is information about book 2: URL LINK to BOOK 2 Title . Great Press Book Publisher, 2011.
This is information about book 3: URL LINK to BOOK 3 Title. Great Press Book Publisher, 2012.
This is information about book 4: URL LINK to BOOK 4 title. Great Press Book Publisher, 2013."
I've placed the URL links for each respective book in the highlighetd text area for that book, represented by the BLUE text in the above example. The overview page as well as the individual book pages are publised and in my domain on-line.
Everything works fine with one exception. When I select a book link in the overview page, I want to have a New Browser window appear for that books individual page. Currently, the individual book page appears in the same browser window.
All, documentation I read says that I can set the "Target" field in Text properties to either NONE or _Blank to get a New Browser Window, but this does not seem to work.
Breaking up the text into small pieces is not an option, since Flash seems to shift text block positions when they are placed close to one another. I don't know why, it just happens. This makes the site unusable so the text block needs to remain a single text block for appearance reasons.
So, does anyone know if this is a bug in CS6?
Or does anyone know how I can get the "Target" setting to work for URL links within a block of text?
Thanks.
