IE only opens in an Iframe rather than a seperate page

[Jason]

How does one get IE8 to open in a seperate page when the link that I want to open is on an Iframe?
What is happening is IE8 is opening on the Iframe part of the page.

You need to set the links on the iframe page to open in _blank
However this will only work if you can modify the code you're showing within the iframe.

Thanks Sledger for that. Ihave the link set to open in _blank but still it opens in the Iframe. Any ideas what code I need to modify it?

Jason, do you have an URL please?

Setting the target for links (those in the embedded page) to _blank absolutely works. I've used it any times and tested again in the latest version of Xara just now.

Thanks Sledger

Hi Jason,

When I check the source of the page in that frame I see:

<span class="xr_tl xr_s6" style="top: -11px;"><a href="http://www.rexel.com/en/rexel-worldwide/" onclick="return(xr_nn());" onmousemove="xr_mo(this,0)" >Rexel Worldwide</a></span>

Perhaps after setting the 'Open link in' to 'New windows or tab (_blank)' in Xara, you are not pressing 'Apply' because the source should look like this;

<span class="xr_tl xr_s6" style="top: -11px;"><a href="http://www.rexel.com/en/rexel-worldwide/" target="_blank" onclick="return(xr_nn());" onmousemove="xr_mo(this,0)" >Rexel Worldwide</a></span>


This is why the link is not opening in a new window.
