One of my popUps always uses the same window for display... as expected.
The other always generates a new window... (which clutters the desktop and uses
resources). Both are called from the same page.
I have a header that always has a help button in it. It calls help.cfm which pops up a
help window with the contents of #Client.HelpIs#. If I navigate to a new page and
press help, the old help window repopulates with New help info.
Another page has a list of items each with a button for "Details" by each lineitem.
Every press of the detail button brings up a new DetailWindow, ...even If I press the
SAME Detail button. I am looking for all details to use the same window.
As far as I can tell it is identical code... so I'm at a adjust this.
The code:
<head>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
window.name = "theAppWindow";
var newWin;
function popUp(page, name, details) {
newWin=window.open(page, name, details);
newWin.focus();
return false;
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="help.cfm" onClick="return popUp('help.cfm', 'theHelpWindow',
'width=400,height=500')">Help</a>
<a href="index.cfm" onClick="return
popUp('index.cfm?fuseaction=Work.StepDetail&Step=1', 'theDetailWindow',
'width=600,height=500')">DETAILS></a>
</body>
As it so happens... the href= is of no consequence... i can put anything in there...
it's the popUp('page' that counts.
Anybody know how I might start trying to fix this?
thanks,
Brian
