Hi

Bit stuck at the moment, What I would like to do is open a new window when a button on a html form is pressed.  I've looked at window.open function in Javascript which I can get to work on its own, but can't implement it into my existing script.  Here is the bit of the existing script:

Code:

$other = ($row[active] > 0) ? "<form action=\"http://www.theaccommodationfinder.co.uk/sites/$row[hid].php4\" method=get>".            "<input name=hid type=hidden value=".$row[hid].">".            "<input type=submit value=\"Further details for $row[name]\"></form>     " : "";

Which basically displays a "Further information" button if the site is live, then opens a page relating to the hotel.

Not sure how to get Javascript to fit in there, any ideas please?

Thanks.

Add  target=wname to your <form> tag if you want to target to a window called wname, or add target=_blank if you want to create a new window every time.

Perfect.  Thanks.

Sorry, another problem.  I didn't want any toolbars or address bars so I changed to the following:

Code:

$other = ($row[active] > 0) ? "<form method=get onSubmit=\"window.open('http://www.theaccommodationfinder.co.uk/sites/$row[hid].php4?hid=$row[hid]' ,'', 'top=50, left=50, width=700, height=700, scrollbars')\">".            "<input name=hid type=hidden value=".$row[hid].">".            "<input type=submit value=\"Further details for $row[name]\">                                    </form>   " : "";

Which does exactly what I want, in terms of the child window, displays the information correctly without toolbars, etc.

The problem is when the form is submited it changes the main page, and I don;t know why.  The following link is what I'm taking about, if you hit the 'Further details' button you'll see what I mean:

Have I missed anything?

Thanks.

In technical terms , the Javascript seems to be refreshing the current window with the same parameters as you pass to the new window too.  Alas, like you I can't see why and I don't know enough JavaScript to make an educated guess either, I'm afraid.   Chris - in your shoes I would continue testing, tweaking, breaking and refixing and then see if I could make some sense of what I had learnt!

Funny enough I was just loging on to say I've found the same thing.  The main page's parameters are changing for some reason, been playing for a while but not quite got it yet...  I'll not let it beat me....  

Done it.  

Changed the method to POST instead of get thats done the trick.  

Thanks for your help anyway.

Cheers.
