How can I make my links pop up in a new window on the screen, such as in this site? Notice when you click on the links, the info/url opens in the same window, yet in the right-hand box...

In this particular case, they didn't use IFRAMES at all, which might be easier in some cases. Instead, they used a javascript solution where all of the content for each link was in a single page. When the link is clicked, it hides and shows different sections of the page. The primary advantage of this method is that there's no flicker when you change pages and the page changes are virtually instantaneous. The problem is that each time a visitor goes to the site every page on the site would be loaded at the same time, which might take quite a while depending on your page content.
In other words: they didn't use IFRAMES, but it'd probably be much easier to do. The best solution would be to use something called AJAX, but it's probably too difficult for you to implement
