The headers don't control browser behaviours like this - the opening in a new window is a browser level function, i.e. something defined by an href target, etc which the browser should (but will not always) adhere to. The only way I could think of would be to write out some client side script to make a new window open (JavaScript, etc) Best regards, Richard Davey -- http://www.launchcode.co.uk - PHP Development Services "I am not young enough to know everything." - Oscar Wilde
