Hi

I'm using a small popup window containing the line

<body onBlur=&quot;self.focus()&quot;>

This works fine on an NT system (and probably on 9x systems as well), but not under Win2000 : the popup does stay on front when trying to click on the underlying page that called it, but not when other windows are focused from the w2k taskbar. I need people to close the popup before being able to do anything else, so the taskbar buttons shouldn't allow the users to change the active window (especially the page that called the popup shouldn't be accessed before the popup is closed). Is there a way to catch this (or does someone have an idea where win2000 differs from the other windows versions)?

Thanks.
 
Try to do it without the popup,
they are never that predictable.
Some people have popup-killers too.
 
It's used for an intranet site that allows employees to submit company requests, not an internet site with annoying popup windows. I need it.
