Searched for this, didn’t find anything.

So, I’ve got this site I’m working on for a band, and the main site is all flash, one file. But I have a photo gallery and a message board that are not flash, that go along with the site.

I want the Photo gallery and message board page to open up in a new browser. So I used the getURL (“[http://www.site.com/gallery/](http://www.site.com/gallery/)”, “\_blank”), which works for some computers, but the popup blockers on most computers detect it as a pop-up, and stop it from opening.

Any Ideas?

Thanks
