Here is what i have so far. I have it so they open in new windows, but i want it only if the check box is checked...
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script>
function new() {
if ( document.getElementById('checkbox').checked )
window.open( 'y', 'n', 't', 'New Window' );
}
else
{
break;
}
var OpenNew = document.getElementById('opennew');
OpenNew.addEventListener('click', OpenWin, false );
</script>
</head>
<body>
<p>
<form name="test">
<p>Open link in a new window <input type="checkbox" id="checkbox" name="check" /></p>
</form>
</p>

I am unsure how to actually do the if statement if it is checked then open. It does currently open in a new tab.. i just need it to be only when its checked.
Any help with this will be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
