Hi,

I'm new to java.
Just found an easy and reasonable looking script from http://www.a1javascripts.com/site_navigation/opennewwin2/opennewwin2.html.
But when following instructions - the script doesn't work.
Probably something essential missing, which the author didn't mention. There is no frames. The purpose is to open new smaller info window without toolbars. While clicking i get error on page
Can anyone point out what i'm doing wrong?

tia robert

You have the wrong script - the purpose of that script is to put into a popup, and when the link is clicked, the location of its opener window changes. You're looking for the opposite, how to open a popup window. So what you need is this code between the <head> and </head> tags:
<script type="text/javascript">
function OpenPopup(w, atts){
window.open(w.href, '_blank', atts);
return false;
}
</script>
Then use this code for a link:
<a href="url here" onclick="return OpenPopup(this, 'width=300,height=400,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes');">Click here</a>

hi i m no pro...

but for a new window ..


<html>
<head>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">

popup_window = null;
function popup() {
popup_window = window.open('popup.html', 'popup',
'width=500,height=500,resizable=0,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,statusbar=no');
}

</SCRIPT>

</head>
<body>
<form>
<input type="button" value="Enter Here" onClick="popup()"
</form>

<br><br>

<a href='javascript:popup()'><IMG SRC="any_pic.gif" BORDER="0" ALT="Enter"></a>

<br><br>

<a href='javascript:popup()'>Open new window</a>
</body>
</html>


something very werid... i type no space for javascript in the code but the result has a space when I post this reply

NOTE* <a href='javascript:popup()'> -- there is not space in the middle of java script

this gives popup from a button, picture and text ..

How would I go about making it not resizable?

isn't it quite obvious?
onclick="return OpenPopup(this, 'width=300,height=400,scrollbars=yes,resizable=no');"
