Window.open 1

[scohan]

Is there a way that I can dermine if the current page has a child window of anohter browser window opened via window.open? I need to handle 'is the user logged in or has the session expired?' processing differently if the user bookmarked the page or if the user got to the page via link which opens a new window. Thanks.

Hmmm, I think you can test like so:

if(window.opener)
{
//it is in a popup window
}

To see if it came from a page or whatever you can test against the document.referrer property I think. jared@aauser.com -
