I know you can do control + n but I'm looking for a lazier way =\

I want a button on the links toolbar so I can do it on my mouse

I have a third mouse button but i haven't got the software to program that
button into doing what I want it to

it's a problem mate. i know what it's like when you're a busy crunt and all
you want to be able to do is open a new window without having to press
control+n or use your third mouse button.

so instead, save a shortcut that points to the URL
"", you can then add this to your links bar

that should make life a bit easier

i expect life is gonna be very fucken easy for you from now on, you
time-saving crunt

What you really need to do is to buy a microphone and some sort of dictation
software that allows control of the PC (e.g. DragonDictate).  Not sure if XP
allows you to control the OS via voice but it has dictate s/w built in.

Or was it Office XP?  SomethingXP has voice recog stuff...

You can basically put anything you like in the url field of one of those.

Tony, why not try this URL  for all your window-opening needs
" f=new Function("window.open();f()");void(f())"

This will save you a fucken lot more time (you will only need to click the
button once.)
