Is there a way to simulate the File:New:Window menu option using javascript? I want to duplicate my current window and then force it to submit.

This code should do the job... When I save this code, run it, and click the link, it creates an exact copy of itself:
Hope this helps!

Code:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!--
function dupWindow() { var winHandle = window.open(top.location, '', ''); }
//-->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>
<BODY>
Click <A HREF="javascript:dupWindow();">here</A> to duplicate this window...
</BODY>
</HTML>Hope this helps!
Dan

var copy = window.open(location.href);
copy.document.forms[0].submit();

var copy = window.open(location.href);

The problem with using location.href is that it will only give you a copy of the current document, which is not always the whole window (if you are in a frameset, for example).
If you are in a frameset, you want the whole thing, so you'd use top.location. If you only wanted the current document, then document.location (or location.href) would be fine.
