I am new to using DotNetNuke and am having some issues getting a link to an external site to open in a new window. I also need to have a warning message telling users that they are leaving our site. I'm using JavaScript to display the warning message which is working just fine. I just can't seem to get the link to open in a new window. I've tried using the JavaScript window.open function but the window is blocked by the pop-up blocker (which I want to avoid). I've also tried using meta-refresh but I can't seem to get it to open in a new window. I know that some of these methods are frowned upon so I'm looking for any suggestions anyone might have on how I might get this to work. If I were just writing straight HMTL code, I wouldn't be having the issue but, using DotNetNuke is a whole new ballgame. I figured that there would be some sort of checkbox somewhere to open the page in a new window but, if there is I can't find it!

So, I've discovered how to add the link without it getting blocked by the pop-up blocker.  Go to your page properties and then select "URL" for the link type and then insert the following as the URL:   void(window.open('http://www.google.com'))

That solves that problem.  Now I need to let users know that they are leaving our site when they click this link.  I normally use a javascript alert to do this however, I can't figure out where to place the code in this instance so that it will work.  Any suggestions?
