I've been writing INET functions that return html as a new page to be displayed in the same browser window. That works fine. But, how can I get the html to display in a new browser window, either as a popup or as a normal window?

I'm launching the inet function from a javascript - as in this snippet:

location=http://localhost/weboi/oecgi2.exe/INET_ECM_GetFeature?X_PIXEL= + lonlat.lon + '&Y_PIXEL= + lonlat.lat + '&ZOOM= + zoom;}});

Mark -

Take a look at protoype.js

Including that library on your pages adds a lot of functionality. Many people post extensions on the web. You can ususally find a script to do what you want.

script.aculo.us is a good starting point.

for a popup try http://snook.ca/archives/javascript/prototypepowere/

Thanks Bob - good suggestions. Can anyone suggest a really good book on javascript?

I've found plenty of free javascripts just by searching.

Here is what I do to open a new window using javascript.

( should be replaced with greater than and less than characters)

In the head section, my function:
script language=javascript"
   function ViewSample() {
   window.open('http://www.thisisasample.com/aavcm/5581.htm','mapWin', 'width=800,height=600') 
   } 
/script
Then I place an image that is clicked to view a sample in the body section:

a href=javascript:ViewSample()"img src=http://www.thisisasample.com/aavcm/5581b.gif" width=150" height=87" /

I was able to find a good solution. Here's the modification to the code snippet I posted previously:

var url=http://localhost/weboi/oecgi2.exe/INET_ECM_GetFeature?X_PIXEL= + lonlat.lon + '&Y_PIXEL= + lonlat.lat + '&ZOOM= + zoom;

var Window1=window.open(url, "Window1", "width=740, height=600, location=no, menubar=no, toolbar=no");

Window1.focus();

The last focus statement puts the popup on top of the calling window.

Thanks for your help.
