Instead of a link just changing the current page, how do you get it to
open a new window instead?

Many thanks in advance.

CTRL+N

or...

Tools / Internet Options / Advanced tab.
Uncheck 'Reuse windows for launching shortcuts'.

That's assuming you are using Internet Explorer.

Add target="new" to the HTML tag.

Thanks - that's what I was looking for, how to do it myself in one of my
web pages.

You should use target="_blank"
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/types.html#h-6.16

Discussion of it here:
http://www.webmasterworld.com/forum21/5983.htm

An example might be:

<a href="http://www.microsoft.com" target="_blank">Microsoft</a>

Also look up on how to use style sheets.
