I would like to have any document inserted into a page default to open in a new window (_blank) when the link to it is clicked on.

The current dropdown menu on the "Downloadable Files" popup opens to "nothing" not even the selected option of "Not Set." I have tried to comment out all the other options in the list so that only the only choice left is "<OPTION id=optNewWindow value="_blank" selected>New Window</OPTION>" on the insert_document.asp file but it still opens with a blank (nothing) choice. When I click on insert, the link to the document is entered but no target is saved. I must select "New Window" (the only choice at this point) and it will save the target correctly.

 

Two questions, Why is the Target dropdown menu always opening to a blank space even though "Not Set" is the selected option?

 

How can I modify the code so that every document opens in a new window.
