How can I have a link to a flash file (.swf) open in a new window on my website?

I have a list of games in .swf format and that list is posted on my site.
When the user clicks each link I would like it to open the swf game in a new window, preferably of an automatic size, if not a specific one for all the swf files.
Right now I just link to each flash file and that opens the file in the current browser window, making it very large, the same size as the page you are viewing, I don't want that.

I am using HTML in Dreamweaver CS3.
I wouldn't mind using flash, just know more about HTML.

When you link to the .swf you can use target="blank" in the href....

<A HREF="link.swf" target="_blank">

This will force the page to open in a new window...

If you're controlling the new window you can use javascript on that page to make it a specific size.

<script language="JavaScript">
window.resizeTo(640, 480)
</script>

you didn't mention what coding language you're using for the main part of your site.

i know i prefer to design my sites all in flash for now, as my knowledge is limited in CSS and HTML so i can really only give you guidance on that - and there's this great tutorial on creating javascript popup windows that you load the .swf files into.....

see this tutorial if you're working in flash: http://learn005.com/podcasts/flash/javas...
