Hi fishin4snook,
Just need to add an onload event inside the <body> tag and call your open window function.
for example:
<script>
function openwin() {
newWin=window.open(......)
}
</script>
<body onload="openwin()">
hope this helps [sig]<p>Chiu Chan<br><a href=mailto:cchan@gefmus.com>cchan@gefmus.com</a><br><a href= America, Inc</a><br>[/sig]

It gives me an internet explorer javascript error when pasting
<script>
function openwin() {
newWin=window.open(......)
}
</script>
Into the head code. and pasting
onload="openwin()"
Into the body of the html.

Thanks for the tip, I was putting the script inside of the Head of the html and not after it.
Do you know how to make that window close after a certain number of seconds?
Thank you again.

Fishin4snook,
try this the closewin function will get call after 5 seconds,
<html>
<head>
<script>
var delay=5000;
function openwin() {
newWin=window.open()
setTimeout("closewin()", delay);
}
function closewin() {
newWin.close();
}
</script>
<head>
<body onload="openwin()">
</body>
</html>

Thank you for all of your advice on this subject. One question though how do you define which window you want to pop up?
