How to CSS: a { target = _top; }

Guest_imported · Apr 8, 2002

Subject pretty much says it. I can't find any references in the CSS specs to specifying the target. What I'd like to do is use CSS to define a class of anchors that have a specific target. Actually, I'm writing within a frame and want all links to have a target of _top. Do I have to use the old <a href="www.tek-tips.com" target=_top> on every single anchor or is there a CSS way?

Any pointers greatly appreciated!

I haven't found a css way to accomplish this but you can add this for all links to open in a new window.

<HEAD>
<base target="_new">
</HEAD>

To overide a specific link:

<a href="mypage.htm" target="_self">
