Dipti,

Unfortunately, when I went to the Url you gave as an example, IE5 opened the window as intended. Which version of IE are you testing with?

You may want to consider doing inline script instead of using the MM_ window behavior. i.e:

 href="Javascript: Window.open('your_relative_url_here',other attributes here seperated by commas)"

maybe this helps. Good luck.

i am using IE 5.0 Why does it not open in my browser? maybe it is the browser fault. i will check again and let u know what is wrong.

Is there a reason using JavaScript? I suggest using

target=_blank

in the

<a href=&quot;www.blah.com/[...]&quot;[...]

tag. Maybe I'm completely wrong, but normally this opens a new browser window and is also compatible with users and browsers that do not have activated JavaScript ;-)

i figured out the problem. my IE browser was missing some component that i had to run. i went to microsoft website and went thru the steps how to fix this problem.
thank you all for the help.
