Hi..
I'm fairly new to php.. I was hoping to add a popup window to one of my scripts.. so that when the php loads with will also open a secondary fixed sized window..

I understand I have to use javascript for this? Can anyone help me with some syntax?

TIA

Code: 
window.open();

But it will likely get blocked.

Try the Javascript forum if you need more info.

php in this context just outputs text to the browser (in terms of interaction with the browser, that is). the text can be html or javascript or whatever. so

Code: 
<?php
echo <<<HTML
<script>
window.onload = function(){alert('i am a js dialog box');};
</script>
<div>
A dialog should pop up now
</div>
HTML;
?>
should cause the browser to pop up a dialog box.

Use the onload event of your pages body element.
Code: 
<body onload="window.open()">
But again this is a JS question not PHP.

There has to be a body tag somewhere even if its oscommerce stuff, otherwise the html would be invalid, and could not be rendered properly.

You need to look for it in the pages the oscommerce stuff produces.

But trust me its there somewhere.
