Javascript and Behaviours problems

Hi,

I've searched this forum but not found my particular problem.

In some links I have been using the javascript:; and behaviours method to open
& size a new window. However, having converted the site to utilise templates
the links no longer work.

A few weeks ago a chap called Daryl advised me not to go down this route and
suggested that I use the following method -

<a href="page.cfm" onClick="myJavascriptFunctionCall();return false;">Text
Link</a>

From this I get the impression that I need an external javascript. Where do I
get it and what do I do with it?

Any help would be much appreciated.

myJavascriptFunctionCall() is a symbolic representation of the code on YOUR
page.

In other words, if you are using the Open Browser Window behavior, your code
would look this, before -

<a href="java script:;" onClick="MM_openBrWindow(...)">

and this, after -

<a href="foo.cfm" onClick="MM_openBrWindow(...);return false">

Get it?
