I want to have a window that when a user clicks on a link pops-up and when they click a close image the screen closes. Iam assuming this is some sort of javascript please help.

<a href="Javascript:window.close()">Close Window</a>

Use that to close a window that you pop up.

How do I get the window to pop-up preferably without the address and tools bar at the top (I think this is possible).

thanks again

<script language="JavaScript">
window.open('URL', 'TITLE', 'toolbar,menubar,scrollbars,resizable,status,location,width= 100,height=200,')
</script>


Just replace URL and TITLE to what you want. if you want something out of there like the location just remove it form the code.

Like you are you just learned something. This is a great forum. If you want to learn it. Learn it when you need it as you just did.
Enjoy all...

sorry to be an idiot but I tried the code placing the required url in the correct place and I get errors on the page and the button doesn't load another window.

any clues

The forum must've broken this line into two sections:

window.open('URL','TITLE','toolbar,menubar,scrollbars,resiza ble,status,location,wi
dth=100,height=200');

They should be together. Is that your problem?

[edit]

And also it keeps adding a space between "window." and "open", it should be "window.open".

how do I have more than one button to open different pages. I think I will need to copy the script but alter the script name. Is thios correct if not how do I go about doing this.


[edit]
got it sorted just needed to copy the code and stick a 2 after popup in the javascript and call popup2() instead of popup() in the html
