i have a form that pops up a window when you click on a link.

in that new window #1, there is a form that when submitted, calls new window #2 to open.

it works in ie, but in firefox, the destination that should be in new window #2 just consumes window #1.

here's what i'm using to call window...

for window #1:
swin1=window.open ('location1.html','swindow1','');

for window #2:
rwin1=window.open ('location2.html','rwindow1','');

so, no go for firefox.

any ideas?

thanks.

i just realized that it's opening a new window technically, but it's a tab within window #1.

how, for firefox, do i open an actual new window and not just a tab?

add the bit with the red color

for window #1:
swin1=window.open ('location1.html',[red]'_blank',[/red]'swindow1','');

for window #2:
rwin1=window.open ('location2.html',[red]'_blank',[/red]'rwindow1','');
