not all popups are blocked. it depends on what you getURL to. If it's just a script, or a web page, the browser won't block it, if it's a javascript call, then you're on for problems. Try this : test_btn.onRelease = getThatURL; function getThatURL() { getURL(http://www.yahoo.com,aaa;); }

It opens a new window That's what the second argument in getURL is for. You can give it _self, _blank, _parent, _top but you can also give it a string to identify the window. Jim Berkey [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I need the browser to open a new window but if I press my button multiple
