Jim,
The other thing they implemented was 'Openaspopup'. I cannot get this to work. Have you tried, and if so do you know the syntax to add it? I tried 'class=Openaspopup' but that didn't work.... tried target='openaspopup' and that just opens it in a new window.
I'm trying to figure out the syntax, and even better, if we can control the size of the pop up

Hi Mike,
Have you tried syntax (class='
I have not tried it yet. My guess is the pop-up cannot be styled "yet" and that we would need that as a parameter of the class.
See if you can get it to work. I'll mess around with it tomorrow maybe.
Good Luck,
Jim

- Got it working thanks to Justin Torrence who posted on a different thread.
var text URL = URLRoot() & .............
"<a href=\"" &url & "\" class=\"OpenAsPopup\">Words Here</a>"
I will admit, I don't know CSS very well and I typically have different syntax, so am a little unclear as to how I could modify this in different cases (ie, I typically use <a href='" & $URL & "'>Words here</a>" and I don't know how to add it with that syntax, but Justins worked!)

------------------------------- Mike, your style/syntax will work. Example: "<a href='" &url & "' class='OpenAsPopup'>Words Here</a>"
You can also re-organize the internals of the Anchor like this: "<a class='OpenAsPopup' href='" &url & "'>Words Here</a>"
Two critical aspects of Rich Text Formula buttons are to
1: Ensure there is always a space between the innards (that's what tells the code/formula that one ended and another is beginning).
2: Ensure the text inside the 'single' quotes match in every way, including Case.

------------------------------- Thanks for the explanation Brad! I need to take an entire class on CSS!
Interesting, your version 2, I swear was the first thing I tried - with my novice understanding that was my first guess. It didn't work, which means I must have had a typo my first try and then lead myself down a rabbit hole when I thought it didn't work.
Do you have any recommendations for learning materials for this? Or just a classic google search and go from there?
