Problems with window.open

[snakeeyes1978]

Got a really strange error. Javascript line producing the error is:

window.open('

http://localhost/buil­

dtesting/screens/view_bugdesc.php?­ code=261','','');

And the error that comes up is 'Access is Denied'. I've checked the file permissions and they all seem to be fine.

Strangely enough, the website detects whether you are logging on locally or remotely and if logging in remotely the line of script changes to:

window.open('

http://11.11.11.11/bu­

ildtesting/screens/view_bugdesc.ph­ p?code=261','','');

And that runs fine. So the error only occurs when the user is logged on locally. Got me stumped - Any ideas?

Hmmm. I read something about IE not allowing window.open commands on pages from a different domain and even though the domain is the same, I thought i'd try the following:

window.open('view_bugdesc.php?­ code=261','','');

but still the same problem exists.

No-one has any idea?

Why not just keep it the remote path, should work for both the local and remote user.
