I'm sure this will already have been pointed out, by the time this posts, but isn't this the equivalent of the following? (on first web page, square brackets traded for angle brackets, so as not to confuse webmail clients.) [a href="yourscript.cgi" target="_blank"]Start my CGI Script in a new window[/a] I mean, the point is to start the script in a new browser window, without forcing the user to leave the current window, right? If you'd like even more control over the script window that pops up, you could open it via JavaScript "window.open" method, specifying width, height, border, scroll bars, buttons, etc. You'd just have to specify the URI as your CGI script. Of course, I may have misunderstood your question. I hope this helps. --- Stephen ~runester~ Jarjoura

A link sends you to my script. 2. My script immediately sends that page back to where it came from. 3. My script creates a new window, and continues to do stuff on it. Make sense? I know there's some way to do this with CGI but I'm not at all sure how. In fact I'm a bit confused by the directions I read online about it. Any help would be greatly appreaciated.
