OKay here is the deal, i am using javascript to open windows for my website, this website is designed for an internal lan and all the browsers allow popups from the site, but when using firefox with firebug to debug any errors on the file i get the following

missing ; before statement
funtion manusrpop(url)\n

even when i put it in my debug page which has nothing but the code that i want to debug to see if it works it still fails.

this is my js code

// Firt pop is for managing web users
<!---
funtion manusrpop(url)
{
	manusr = window.open(url, "WEB USER CONTROL", "menubar=0,resizeable=1,scrollbars=1,location=0,menubar=1");
	manusr.moveTo(200,200);
}

THere is more but it fails at the first function

this is the code of the link i use to call the pop up on my main page

<A HREF="javascript:void(0)" onclick="manusrpop('index.php')">Get a welcome message</A>

with this in the header

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript" TYPE="TEXT/JAVASCRIPT" src="config/popupman.js">
<!--

//-->
</SCRIPT>

Know i am no expert but when i use a peice of code off of a tutorial site to test and all with it in a seperate file it works, but when i write my own and include the page for functions and try to use it i get that error

Thanks in advance for the help

Don't bang your head on the wall, but you wrote "funtion" rather than "function"


Happens to me all the time....
Viva la colorazione syntaxiq

I don't even want to admit how many times I've done something similar and stayed up all night to find my typo.

ops

even after scanning it for a long time still didnt figure out my typo.

thanks for pointing that out.

Jon sometimes it takes a second pair of eyes. I think the more you stare at something the harder it becomes to spot the obvious.
