Forms and java script

[help120]

I want a window to open up after some one fills out this form.

This is the form code:
<form action=&quot;gy/mail_fp.asp&quot; method=&quot;POST&quot;>
<p style=&quot;margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0&quot;>
<input class=&quot;shade&quot; type=&quot;text&quot; name=&quot;email&quot; size=&quot;11&quot;>
<BR>
</p>
<div align=&quot;left&quot;>
<div align=&quot;left&quot;>
<table border=&quot;0&quot; cellpadding=&quot;0&quot; cellspacing=&quot;0&quot;
style=&quot;border-collapse: collapse&quot; bordercolor=&quot;#111111&quot; width=&quot;129&quot;
id=&quot;AutoNumber8&quot;>
<tr>
<td width=&quot;100%&quot; align=&quot;right&quot; valign=&quot;top&quot;>
<p style=&quot;margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0&quot;>&nbsp;<input src=&quot;images/submit.gif&quot; type=&quot;image&quot; type=&quot;submit&quot; value=&quot;Submit&quot; alt=&quot;Join&quot; name=&quot;submit&quot; width=&quot;28&quot; height=&quot;7&quot;>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</div>
</div>
</form>

This is the java script code:

<script language=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
<!-- hide from JavaScript-challenged browsers
function openWindow(url) {
popupWin = window.open(url,'new_page','width=400,height=450')
}
// done hiding -->
</script>

This is the code to link to the javascript:

JavaScriptpenWindow('gy/mail_fp.asp')

I tryed putting the &quot;&quot;JavaScriptpenWindow('gy/mail_fp.asp')&quot;&quot; in the action area and it works but... the user still has to type in their e-mail addy.

Could you be more specific? Are you trying to validate an email address? If the email address is valid, then the user can submit the form and pop open the window?

Be sure to watch your the properites that you are placing for your fields. It looks to me like you have two seperate type properties declared 'type=&quot;image&quot; type=&quot;submit&quot;'. A type submit will always work fine. If you are going to use an image as you submit, then you need to add an <a> tag around the image or include an onClick event.
