form button to run php script in pop up window

[SM777]

I have a form which passes vars to a php script. This is working fine with a form action="/scripts/runme.php" method="post" etc.

What I want to do though, is to have the results displayed in a pop up window.

I tried a javascript pop up function which did open up a pop up when the button was pressed but the form vars are not being passed to the script.

is it possible to run a php script in a pop up window from a form?

I would think so.

Could you pass the variables via the url?

Like:

thread215-330289 the:
SQID=330289
SPID=215

Just write a javascript function that passes the variables that way. Seems like it would work to me but I don't really program in php much. ====================================

Why don't you just add target=&quot;_blank&quot; to <form>?

target=&quot;_blank&quot; works, but then I have no control over the size or toolbars!

Cheers.

as for passing the variables on the url, well there's too many off them.

I guess I need to put the form in the .php file and run from within itself with the javapopup if you know what I mean. Not the ideal solution as I wanted the form to be on a html page and then run the php results in a popup.

Why don't you just have the php page that the form gets submitted to open the new window and display the results?
