Could you please help me with the full sintaxis of the htmlLink function in the PG language. I would like to be able to open a "webpage" linked as "name" in a separate window, say called "top" (really open the htmlpage in a new window). It seems that the htmlLink function opens the link always in the existing window, which is inconvenient in some cases. Thanks,

Yavor

HI,

I just added a manpage for htmlLink.

A third (optional) variable is inserted as a string in the HTML link definition so

htmlLink("http://webwork.math.rochester.edu","WeBWorK homePage", "TARGET=~~"top~~" ") should do what you want.
