well, A) why is there no text on your main page? You have a *picture* of
text, but no text for search engines to "see", let alone screen readers for
Accessibility. but B) why do you have all subpages come up in a popup
window? Rather user-unfriendly, really.

Sorry for this mini-rant....

Are you expecting to get good search engine positioning with a page that has
no content, and a site that cannot be spidered? Please read this about the
menus you have used -

I am trying to fix a number of problems on this site including the text on the home page, and the pop ups. The Pop up issue was going to be next issue.

There is. It's in the same color as the background, under the hr and the
(external) hit counter. (Do a ^A to see it.) To the original poster:
this is a fast way to get yourself banned from search engines.

Exactly. And the sub-pages open up further windows.

ddurs,

As a short answer to your question, YES, you can do what you are asking. Look in the BEHAVIORS in DreamWeaver, and you'll see a "open in new window" command. If you click on that, it will open up a panel where you can put in options that include the size of the window and whether you want scrollbars to appear.

The issues the others brought up are valid complaints about the site, but hopefully this will help with your immediate problem.

The "behaviors" menu is blank. Does it need to change on each page or just the homepage? Thanks very much.
