I had this issue, but solved it fairly simply by using html:rewrite istead:
window.open('<html:rewrite href="reportReceived.do" name=
"investigationEmploymentHistoryForm" property="map">View
Employment History Report</html:rewrite>')
It looks a bit ugly. That's why I swept all the javascript rubbish into a
tile that essentially replaces the <html:link> tag for popups in my
application.
<tiles:insert page="/tiles/popuplink.jsp">
<tiles:put name="hlink">
<html:rewrite forward="your.link" name="name" property="property"/>
</tiles:put>
<tiles:put name="label">Your link</tiles:put>
<tiles:put name="class">someCSS</tiles:put>
</tiles:insert>
The generated HTML looks something like this:
<a class="someCSS" href="javascript:void(0)"
onclick="window.open('yourlink.do?name=value','windowName',....)>Your
link</a>
It's a lot of code for a little link, but in practical terms its cleaner and
promotes reuse. The next step would be a custom tag. Actually, that sounds
like fun - I might do it today!

Subject: html:link confusion
All,
I had the code below in my jsp and everything was fine. It worked like it
was supposed to.
<html:link href="reportReceived.do" name=
"investigationEmploymentHistoryForm" property="map" target="_blank">view
Employment History Report</html:link>
Then the users decide that they didn't like the fact that the new window
had all the scrollbars and menus and everything on the top and so I did the
next piece of code below:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function openWindow(theURL,winName,features) {
window.open(theURL,winName,features);
}
//-->
</script>
<html:link href="reportReceived.do" name=
"investigationEmploymentHistoryForm" property="map" onclick="openWindow
('reportReceived.do','','scrollbars=yes')">view Employment History Report
</html:link>
and it stopped working. I got the pop up without all the needed parameters
as well as going to the new page in the parent window. What am I doing
wrong?
Steve
