How to Open iFrame Banner/Widgets in a New Window

All of you might be familiar with opening HTML text links in a new window using “_blank” attribute. But it does not work in iFrame widgets or banners.

Instead of “_blank“, you need to add the following code to open iFrame links in a new window:

Here is an example:

Original code:

<iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=1255415&o=1&p=13&l=ur1&category=holiday&banner=0JZA98M0RH2G176441R2&f=ifr"
width="468" height="60" scrolling="no" border="0" style="border:none;"
frameborder="0"> </iframe>

Altered one with &lt1=_new:

<iframe src="http://rcm.amazon.com/e/cm?t=yourAssociatesID&o=1&p=13&l=ur1&category=holiday&banner=0JZA98M0RH2G176441R2&f=ifr&lt1=_new"
width="468" height="60" scrolling="no" border="0" style="border:none;"
frameborder="0"> </iframe></div>

Hope you got it right!

   @Softpump
   You can add iframe BANNERS or WIDGETS above your site header, but I think you cannot add the HTML iframes to blogger blogs.

   Hi there

   Well I used that same code in a site earlier this year and it used to work perfectly – the code’s below …. BUT now, for some reason, it now just goes to Amazon in the same window.
   GRRRRRRRR – anyone else noticed this or is it just me?

    @Ray
    Don’t add spaces, copy paste the piece of code given above at right place. Try again.
