window.open

[disord3r]

I have a hyperlink that is opening a new window using window.open. When the hyperlink is clicked, it does open a new window according to the attributes I set in the window.open function, however, the page that contains this hyperlink is changed to a blank page with only the text "[object]". Is there a way for the hyperlink to work as desired while NOT changing the page to say "[object]"?

Show us your code that includes window.open().

Assuming your code looks like this:

<A HREF=&quot;javascript: window.open(something here);&quot;>

Try this:

<A HREF=&quot;javascript: void(window.open(something here));&quot;>

Thanks for the responses. I was able to get this working after a few rounds of Google. If it helps anyone out, I was using...

<a href=&quot;javascript:window.open(stuff);&quot;>link</a>

...and I'm now using...

<a href=&quot;#&quot; onClick=&quot;window.open(stuff);&quot;>link</a>.

It works as I had hoped, and I assume it's because the destination of the link is now null, versus previously being a Javascript function.
