Use the Target pop-up menu in the Property inspector to select a frame to open a file in. You can set a file to open in a new window, replace information in the same frame as the link, and replace information in another frame.
You can cause content from a link to overwrite the current frame or to appear in an entirely new browser window.
To target a frame:
1 | Select text or an object. |
2 | In the Link field of the Property inspector, do one of the following: |
![]() |
Type the name of the file to link to. |
![]() |
Click the folder icon and select the file to link to. |
![]() |
Click and drag the Point to File icon to select the file to link to. |
To specify an anchor in the file to link to, enter a number sign (#) before the anchor name. See Linking to a named anchor. | |
3 | In the Target pop-up menu, choose a target for the linked document to display in. |
![]() |
_blank opens the linked document in a new browser window and keeps the current window available. |
![]() |
_parent opens the linked document in the parent frameset of the link. |
![]() |
_self opens the link in the current frame, replacing the content in that frame. |
![]() |
_top opens the link in the outermost frameset of the current document, replacing all frames. |

If you named frames in the Property inspector, the frame names appear in this menu. Selecting a named frame opens the linked document in the selected frame. |
