Dynamic linking

I am developing an articles page in PHP which is linked to a database that
holds fields for Title, Author and Location. The location field is a link to a
PDF file (eg PDF/article.pdf). What I want to do is display a list of titles
and authors such that when the Title is selected the article opens in a new
window. As there are a lot of these I want to do it dynamically. I can get the
title and author to display OK using a recordset, but my problem is how to link
the displayed Title to the Location so that when clicked it opens the new
window - how do I do that using Dreamweaver's PHP tools?

First, you have to create the link tag by selecting the link text and
putting something temporary (like #) in the link field. Keep the link
selected.

Second, open the Bindings Panel, select the recordset.field, and then
set the attribute you want in the "Bind to:" control.
