I have a "click here" link in an Acrobat form and I would like for a new web browser to open when someone clicks on this link. Is this possible?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8.0, Windows

not sure if this works on non-windows boxes, but I imagine it should...

Provided you have acrobat pro, go to tools > advanced editing > link tool
drag out a box over the text/button img you want to open the new window.

In the dialog that pops up, make your box invisible ( if you like) and select the Open a web link radio button.

When it asks for a URL, type about:blank
.

It does throw a small warning, but it's the only way I could figure to launch a [b]blank[/b] window...
