I see that your original problem http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread229724.html has been solved please mark that as solved so that people dont answer a thread that has already been solved.

Now onto your new problem, the code that is causing your page to open in a new window on page3.html is this:

<a href="page4.html">click</a>

What u need to do is call the same ajx function you use in the menus.

<a style="cursor:pointer" onclick="open_page('page4.html','content')">click</a>

thanks for your reply its running now
