i'm using this script to open a new window on click, but the page that contains the link does not stay after closing the popup window, it switches to a blank page. how do i make the browser stay on that page.

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot;>
function openindex()
{
OpenWindow=window.open(&quot;&quot;, &quot;newwin&quot;, &quot;height=250, width=250,toolbar=no,scrollbars=&quot;+scroll+&quot;,menubar=no&quot;);
OpenWindow.document.write(&quot;<TITLE>Title Goes Here</TITLE>&quot;)
OpenWindow.document.write(&quot;<BODY BGCOLOR=pink>&quot;)
OpenWindow.document.write(&quot;<h1>Hello!</h1>&quot;)
OpenWindow.document.write(&quot;This text will appear in the window!&quot;)
OpenWindow.document.write(&quot;</BODY>&quot;)
OpenWindow.document.write(&quot;</HTML>&quot;)

OpenWindow.document.close()
self.name=&quot;main&quot;
}
</SCRIPT>
