Doesn't the window.open give you the option of naming the new window?

it does open the new window however the window name is the filepath/name. I want to name it something else. Thx

very basic:

<script>
function openwin() {
window.open ('openit.php', 'newwindows') }
</script>

<a href='#' onclick='openwin()'>click</a>
 
Give the page being opened a <title> inside the <head> of the page and that will be the "name" of the page.
