Default pages opening in different windows

I have been having problems with all pages opening in seperate pages. I have had help on your forum and now have 1st and 2nd page opening OK and third and 4th opening OK but all for do not open as one site. I was wondering if using text instead of the button navigations would help?
I have done all the other stuff I think as per advice.

Open your page in BV and double click on the navigation bar. This will open the Properties window. Edit each of the bars. Where it reads "Target": there should not be anything there if you want the link to open in the same page. The box should be completely empty. If not, delete what is in the box.
If you want the page to open in a new window, click on the arrow next to the box and select "_blank". Then the link would open in a new window. Don't forget to Save and Publish after you make any changes.

To check your links, open Firefox and right click on each link and select Properties -it will tell you if it will open in a 'new window' or 'same window'.
It is a bit confusing but if the Target:
is blank (completely empty) it opens in the current window;
If the Target reads "_blank" it opens in a new window.

Firefox is a browser like Internet Explorer. I think it's a good idea to have both FF and IE to view your web pages since they will look a bit different on the different browsers. Then when you publish a page look at it in both browsers and you might want to tweak something for the best results. Lots of people use Firefox.

It's free and you can get it HERE

Annekent,
Did you save and publish your pages? Some of the links are still opening in new windows.

I think I have cracked it!!! Would you have a look and check for me. I had two pages for prices,sizes. One with the URL prices,sizes and one prices_sizes . One which I wasn't using still had the target as _blank. I removed that and I believe it's all working now.
Thank you very much for your help.
