Hi
Am new to all this, so please be gentle with me. I have created a mail-to window containing a SWF which I want to link to from a piece of text. Looking through a few searches, I came up with the following solution, but guess what - it doesn't quite work and I don't know why.
In the HEAD section:

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/JavaScript">
function openpopup(){
window.open('http://www.mywebsite.co.uk/demo/contact.htm','contact','width= 497,height=435,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,directories=no,location=no,menubar=no,
top='+((screen.availHeight/2)-(435/2 ))+',left='+((screen.availWidth/2)-(497/2 ))+'')
}
</script>

Then to create the link, I've used

<a href="http://www.mywebsite.co.uk/contact.htm" onclick="openpopup()">HERE</a>

It opens the page correctly, but the page is full-size, not the size I want it to be (as defined in the function)
Can anyone please tell me what I've done wrong?
Any help/advice gratefully received
Regards
Martin

Works fine for me in Safari And Firefox, what browser you checking this in?

Hi
Am testing in Firefox - the contact form is at the top of the page, but it opens it as a full page window, replacing the existing one, not as a smaller, new one as I'd hoped.
I definitely want it to open as a new window in a fixed size, and neither of these are working for me - so what are you doing differently?
I have created the page 'contact.htm' and saved it to the location in the function and the link - is there something i have to do when creating/saving 'contact.htm'?

Hmmm... Do you have a live page I can look at?

If the popup is loading into another already loaded page, then you need to change the target. Try changing "contact" in the window opener to "_blank" this will always open a new window.

To see it as it is, the contact page link is as above, and the link to it can be found at http://www.frankswanston.co.uk/demo/index1.htm

OK - found out what I was doing wrong. I need to change the following:

<a href="http://www.frankswanston.co.uk/demo/contact.htm" 
OnClick="openpopup()">HERE</a>

to:

<a href="http://www.frankswanston.co.uk/demo/contact.htm" 
OnClick="openpopup();return false">HERE</a>

And then for the Close, change

<a href="http://www.frankswanston.co.uk/demo/contact.htm" 
OnClick="close_window()">CLOSE WINDOW</a>

to:

<a href="java-script:;" 
OnClick="close_window()">CLOSE WINDOW</a>

Thanks anyway for your time

OK, but you may also want to remove the line breaks in the middle of your opennpopup() command. You have line breaks in your window popup code and that was screwing up the script on my browsers. Glad it's working.
