Also note that if you want the window to open after 3 seconds as you had it in the META tag, you'll have to say 3000 in JavaScript since it's counting milliseconds there.

I'm using this code to load a new page in a new window
but the page loads in the same window. How should the target="_blank"
be used to fix this? :?

<html>

<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 4.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
<META HTTP-EQUIV="REFRESH" CONTENT="3; URL=reload.htm" target="_blank">
<title>Test</title>
</head>

</body>

</html>

As far as I know you can't use that META tag to load a page into a new window, but a bit of JavaScript can do it:

setTimeout("window.open('reload.htm', '_blank');", 3000);

Put that into the BODY's onload attribute and it should do what you want.

I just pasted the code you posted into a new file and is doing the job for me without complaining, so I assume you're not using IE 6 like I do... what you could try is assigning the timeout to a variable, like
