You are correct Duncan...this is indeed how a modal should behave - though posting could be performed on the 'OK'

(it's a long time since i ever used one of these, and never for the web, so might well be wrong). trying to submit a form to somewhere else isn't what it's expecting.

The javascript call is like so: <script language="javascript"> function openLogin() { parent.showModalDialog ("login2.cfm",window,"dialogWidth:309px; dialogHeight:273px;help:0;status:no;"); } </script> The login2.cfm looks like this: <form name="loginform" action="results.cfm" method="post" target="window" onsubmit="self.close();"> <table> <tr><td colspan="2" background="images/1px_spacer.gif" width ="270" height="8"> </td></tr> <tr> <td class="logintext">Username:</td> <td><input type="text" maxlength="20" name="uname" class ="loginfield"></td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2" background="images/1px_spacer.gif" width ="270" height="8"> </td></tr> <tr> <td class="logintext">Password:</td> <td><input type="password" maxlength="16" name="pword" class="loginfield"></td> </tr> <tr><td colspan="2"width="270" height="15" align="right"><input type="button" name="cancel" value="Exit" class="loginbtn" onclick="self.close();"> <input type="submit" name="login" value="login" class="loginbtn"><img src="images/1px_spacer.gif" width="33" height="15" alt="" border="0"></td></tr> </table> </form> When I try to submit the form it crashes the browser. Is there some reason why I can't do a standard form submission from a showModalDialog window? Any help would be appreciated.
