Can anyone help with the following:

I am successfully using the window.open code to open a new window from a text hyperlink. The code used is:

<p><a href=""onClick="window.open('archive.html', 'newWnd','width=600,height=500,toolbar=0,status=0, scrollbars=0,resizable=0'); return true;">click here</a></p>

This new window (archive.html) contains an image hyperlink to another new window. The code used is:

<a href=""onClick="window.open('portfolio1.html', 'newWnd', 'width=600,height=500,toolbar=0,status=0,scrollbar s=0,resizable=0'); return true;"><img src="images/thumbnail1.jpg" width="107" height="80" alt=""></a>

However this does not seem to work. Can anyone suggest where I have wandered off the path of righteous code?

Thanks for all help in advance...

Kinda hard to tell with just that...are you getting any javascript errors?

It's kind of hard to explain it better...no javascript errors reported.

If window 2 opens from window 1 (parent), window 3 won't open from window 2. It just stutters on window 2.

But if I open window 2 independently, I can then open window 3.

Mmm...still with me?

Try changing the window name ("newWnd", the second arguement) on the new window, it needs to be unique for different windows. It could be looking at the same window. Try 'archive' in the first script and 'portfolio' in the second script. If its in a script used by many windows, and you need to keep it the same value for some reason, trying calling it "_blank".
