I want to know if there is an html command that will open links in a new window when they are clicked. i think there is i just don't know what it is. if it can't be done with html, then what would i need to use to get the new window upon being clicked.

i have another html question for all of you people. how do you protect images on a webpage so that people can't copy them or save them. i've seen it places but i've never thought about looking at the source to see what was keeping me from saving the image.

Here to Protect images

Here is what you will need:
1) The image that you want to protect
2) A blank GIF overlay (I will provide it for you)
3) A few lines of HTML to display them together

This technique works by displaying a transparent GIF overlay on top of your real image. When a user right-clicks to save it they will save the blank GIF file instead of your real image. Below is the HTML code used to display these images together.




<TABLE border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><TR>
<TD background="RealImage.jpg" width="470" height="270">
<IMG src="blank.gif" width="470" height="270" hspace=0 vspace=0 border=0></td>
</TR></TABLE>

Use the HTML above in place of your normal IMG tag. You need to change the RealImage.jpg reference to that of your own image and change the width and height tags (in both places) to the dimensions of your image. The table only contains 1 cell. Your real image is displayed as the table background and the blank overlay is displayed as the cell content. Since the GIF overlay is considered to be on top, a right click on it will cause you to save the blank overlay instead of the real image.
