The site is at: http://www.Aquaristics.com. Please rest your cursor on Contact, then again on the text Forum (on top of the text). If you click on the text now, no new window opens.
Now do the same thing but instead of clicking on the text 'Forum', click on the background other than Forum. A NEW window pops up. How can I make it behave only in the latter way even when the user clicks on the text Forum?
I tested your site using IE 6.0 and everything works fine. When I move cursor over "Contact" and the sub-menu appears and then when I click on "Forum" a new window appears at http://www.sigmaautomotive.com/phpbb/index.php
Once a second window has been opened via "Target=_NEW" any other menu link with "Target=_NEW" will open in the same second window, instead of opening up additional new windows.

Maybe I don't understand the issue.
Hi, thanks for trying. Did you click on the text Forum or merely somewhere in the background? A new window is opened ONLY if you click on the background. If you click on the text itself, the new page will be loaded in the same window. I just tried again and it is still the case.

Thanks for your explanation. I don't think I can agree with your observation. Try to click on the background of instead of the text Forum, they behave differently. Former will open up a new window every time. Latter will load the new page in the same window every time.
Also, the above link isn't working for me. Thanks.

I can. Click anywhere within the sub-menu item in question on its background area (not the text of that menu item) and it works. Click directly on the text of that same menu item and it does not work; i.e., hover over the blue background of 'Forum' (not the word Forum') and click and you get a new window; hover over the word 'Forum' and click and you do not get a new window.
Hi Andy, sorry to reply you late. Wow, you are gooood. I trust that you've located the source of my problem. QA is a cool script, great for Q&As. Take a look here: http://www.aquaristics.com/schuran_skimmerfresh.asp, in the middle of the page, click on that down arrow. More text will be expanded.
The menu will also do the same, this is based on the Tooltips functionality.

EDIT - Actually I got it wrong, the tooltips are at the bottom of your page. The code for showing the extra text could be done with the menu but it's probably better what you already have.
