open new window resultes in multiple opens

blexman · Feb 6, 2003

I am trying to open a new window without the toolbar and put the focus on field1. I would like to close the old window as well. What is currently happening is the new window is opening and I guess the onload event keeps oepening new widnows...etc. How do I stop multiple onloads ?

abc.asp

<HEAD>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function win()
{
var x=window.open("abc.asp","x","toolbar=no&quot

;
document.frmabc.field1.focus();

}
//-->
</script>
</HEAD>
<LINK rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" ref="stylesheet.css">
<BODY onload="win()">

thanks

Change the function:

function win()
{
if (window.opener) {
document.frmabc.field1.focus();
} else
window.open("newspage.htm","x","toolbar=no&quot

;
}

And, of course, use your own URL. I used newspage.htm to test my own sample
