Popup script not working

lorensr · #1 (**permalink**) 07-20-03, 12:31 PM

I am helping my son with his web site. I use NetObjects Fusion to generate the code and as you suspect, I am code illiterate, both html and javascript.

When I place the code below on the page, I get the following error: javascript: void (0)

I then move the curser a little off of the link and it says: error on page

Would one of you guys (pros) please take a look and see what I have done incorrectly? Thanks much for your help.

onclick="window.open('http://www.vtviews.com/flashtours/7271swf/index.html','pavona','toolbar=yes,location=0,direc tories=yes,status=yes,menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes,r esizable=yes,copyhistory=yes,width=550,height=450' )"

Hey i have a similar but a little easier way try this place this code in between the <head>....</head> tags:

<script language="JavaScript">

</script>

and then any link you want to open a pop up window do come of do this:

<a href="javascript: popWindow(URL IN HERE)">Pop this window</a>

Of course this is alot less flexible but it is alot easier to modify a whole lot of links! and im sorry but im not a pro but i hope that helps

Thanks Henry, I almost have it working now with a script something like what you suggested. It is a little different because there are 2 popups coming from this script. I still have a problem with another window opening that says something like site not found. I don't know how to get rid of it. There are 2 buttons that I want to open virtual tours with on this site:

Could you take a look at the source code to see if you can tell what is causing the problem. Please only if you have time. Thanks much.
