onload problems

ugly · Feb 28, 2007

I have used the onload function to trigger the opening of a secondary window. This secondary window opens fine. I would like to trigger another event when the secondary window has loaded again using the onload function. However I can't get this to work. Thanks for any help

<head>
<script language="javascript">

function loadwebpage()
{
window.open("

http://www.rhizome.org/",

"first", "toolbar=yes,location=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=300,height=300")
//the next line does not work
first.onLoad = function() { alert ("pop up has fully loaded"

}
}
</script>
</head>
<body onload = "loadwebpage()">

</body>
</html>

Try this variation:

Code:

var first = window.open("[URL unfurl="true"]http://www.rhizome.org/",[/URL] "first", "toolbar=yes,location=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=300,height=300");

One quick addition, make this:

Code:

first.onLoad = function() { alert ("pop up has fully  loaded";)}

THIS:

Code:

first.onLoad = [!]new[/!] function() { alert ("pop up has fully  loaded";)}

I did test this with and without

HAHAHAH..... one more thing.....

Put this after the first.onload statement:

Code:

first.focus();

is it cause those two lines are commented out?

Code:

//first.onLoad = new function() { alert ("pop up has fully  loaded";)}
//first.focus();

??
