Hi.
Can you help me with this:
I want javascript to opena window if the window called "newmessage" isn't allready open. I know how to open the window, but not how to make it not open if it is allready open.
Thank you, |

Could you use a hidden input field, or perhaps just a javascript variable as a flag indicating if the window has been opened. In your window opener function, set this flag to true the first time the window is opened. After that, the function looks at the flag and does not open the window again.
Hope that helps,

Thanks, But that wouldn't know if the window has been closed though.  |

Ah yes, good point. Could you use an onunload event handler? But you probably couldn't update the flag because it would be accessible only by the main page, not the popuop page...
Okay, you've got me stumped. Why do you want to do this, anyway?  |

A frame auto refreshes to check if the user has any new messages. If they do it opens the message window. I don't want it to open the window again if they get another message and it is allready open. |
