Tested in NN7/IE6. No claims made for other browsers. Watch for word-wrap.

Kaeli,
Thanks for you fast response. When I tried this, it popped up a grey
alert box that contained the link description text ("Text of link" in
your example), but nothing from the page that I linked to
(someLink.html" in your example). Was that what it was supposed to
do?
What I was after was to open up a small new browser window which
contained only the text between two anchors on another page, e.g. the
link resides on page_one.html, and when clicked it pops up a small
browser window which contains only the text found between
page_two.html#firstanchor and page_two.html#secondanchor.
Any ideas?
Ed
