  • To open a link in a new window, you have to add target="_blank" to your anchor tag (it's not part of the code that you posted here, so you'll have to look for it in another part of the script). For example...

    <a href="http://www.YourLink.com" target="_blank"></a>

    And just so you know... this does not work with all browsers, but it will work with most.
  • Hi Many thanks I did try adding that before but it did not seem to work, I added at the end of 'http://www.cometoportugal.com/carhire-in-portugal-algarve.html' but still left in the //Image w/link so not sure were I am going wrong could the beginning var photos=[

    //Specify images, optional link, optional target:

    //Specify images, optional link, optional target:

    • Hi Algarve

      var photos=[ //Specify images, optional link, optional target: //Specify images, optional link, optional target: ['http://www.cometoportugal.com/banners/AS_logo01 (263x182) 2inch (2).jpg', 'http://www.cometoportugal.com/carhire-in-portugal-algarve.html'], //Image w/link ['http://www.cometoportugal.com/banners/bikeland.jpg', 'http://www.bikeland.pt'], //Image w/link ['http://www.cometoportugal.com/banners/Atlantic-ad.jpg', 'http://www.ondeck.com.pt'], //Image w/link ['http://www.cometoportugal.com/banners/autorocha1.jpg', 'http://www.autorocha.com.'], //Image w/link ['http://www.cometoportugal.com/banners/frontrow.jpg', 'http://www.frontrowtransfers.com'], //Image w/link ];


      In this part of the code (starting at line 566) it is asking you if you want to have the links open in a new tab. As it stands you have not specified that you do.

      For example on line 573 you have

      ['http://www.cometoportugal.com/banners/AS_logo01 (263x182) 2inch (2).jpg', 'http://www.cometoportugal.com/carhire-in-portugal-algarve.html'], //Image w/link

      you need to change it to this

      ['http://www.cometoportugal.com/banners/AS_logo01 (263x182) 2inch (2).jpg', 'http://www.cometoportugal.com/carhire-in-portugal-algarve.html', '_blank'], //Image w/link


      Hope this helps
      Peter
