I would like to be able to control the message displayed in the title bar of
the browser window when I have a hyperlink with a behavior to open the link
in a new window. Now, for example, if the link is to display an image in the
new window, the file name of the image (actually the whole url of the image)
is displayed. How can I alter this? Thanks.
 
Put the image on a page, assign a title to the page, and then load the page in the new window

If you are opening a html page in a new window the Browser Title comes from the <title> tag
If you are just opening an image in a new browser window there is no html so the title is the image URL
- only way around it is to open the new window w/ JavaScript as a popup (where you can set the window title)

Thanks. That sounds helpful, except that I have very limited knowledge of
javascript. In the FP script, what's the modification to specify title:

function FP_openNewWindow(w,h,nav,loc,sts,menu,scroll,resize,name,url) {//v1.0
var windowProperties=''; if(nav==false) windowProperties+='toolbar=no,'; else
windowProperties+='toolbar=yes,'; if(loc==false)
windowProperties+='location=no,';
else windowProperties+='location=yes,'; if(sts==false)
windowProperties+='status=no,';
else windowProperties+='status=yes,'; if(menu==false)
windowProperties+='menubar=no,';
else windowProperties+='menubar=yes,'; if(scroll==false)
windowProperties+='scrollbars=no,';
else windowProperties+='scrollbars=yes,'; if(resize==false)
windowProperties+='resizable=no,';
else windowProperties+='resizable=yes,'; if(w!="")
windowProperties+='width='+w+',';
if(h!="") windowProperties+='height='+h; if(windowProperties!="") {
if( windowProperties.charAt(windowProperties.length-1)==',')
windowProperties=windowProperties.substring(0,windowProperties.length-1);
}
window.open(url,name,windowProperties);
}
