Re: [PHP] Opening new browser window
Why use a javascript to create a new window? Any link can be directed to a new window with a simple target=. "Industry" would be the reference name of the window. For instance, if you wanted to refer to it from another window. PHP is server side, all it does is serve up a resulting page to a client. The client has no idea that PHP is being used, nor does it care. To answer your question you can't do it in PHP, but you can do it using HTTP, HTML and/or Javascript.

I am not sure that the javascript solution to popup a window is correct, because then the popup does not behave normally. By normally, I mean that when I use javascript to popup a new window (search.php), and in search.php I have a form window is a javascript object and so you should be calling some javascript function to set the value here, something like document.form.caller.value=window.opener.location.href; > > clicking OK or Cancel does absolutely nothing. So, I would like to avoid javascript and simply open a new browser window to run search.php. What is the accepted way to do this in php? btnOK and btnCancel are not instructed to do anything when clicked and so there's nothing wrong they are doing! what work these two buttons are supposed to do? I assume 1. btnOK is to post the data to server? in that case, you should have it as button=submit or an onClick="javascript function()"? 2. btnCancel is to close the window and go back to the parent page? in that case also, you should have a onClick function.

You have to use JavaScript for stuff like that, or you could use the frames properties of HTML like this: Click Here Essentially, you're having the new file open up in a new frame, but instead of the frame being defined in the current window, it's in a new window. Not really JavaScript, but same effect. Erik Erik Price Web Developer Temp Media Lab, H.H.
