here is my script, when I click on the link that closes the window (the new window) the prompts keep coming up.

<html>
<title></title>
<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
<!--
function openwin()
{
var name=window.prompt(&quot;What is your first name?&quot;,&quot;Fred&quot;);
var color=window.prompt(&quot;What background color do you want?&quot;,&quot;orange&quot;);
var newin=window.open(&quot;&quot;,&quot;newindow&quot;,&quot;width=300,height=500,status=yes&quot;);
newin.document.write(&quot;<html>&quot;);
newin.document.write(&quot;<head>&quot;);
newin.document.write(&quot;<title>Hey &quot; + name + &quot;, thanks for dropping in!</title>&quot;);
newin.document.write(&quot;</head>&quot;);
newin.document.write(&quot;<body bgcolor=&quot; + color + &quot;>&quot;);
newin.document.write(&quot;<h1>here is your customized window, &quot; + name + &quot;</h1>&quot;);
newin.document.write('<a href=&quot;#&quot; onClick=&quot;self.close&quot;;>Click here to close this window</a>');
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad=&quot;openwin()&quot;>
hello world!
<script language=&quot;javascript&quot;>
<!--
//-->
</script>
</body>
</html>
