This is the *fourth* time I have posted this solution in the past 2 weeks. ;-)

Here is your answer (thanks a TON to Helen T. for archiving this stuff!!):



Subject: open target url with javascript

Date: 3/21/00

Contributed by: Jason Schubring


Q: I want when a button is clicked in the navigator for it to load the

appropriate page in the opener window.


A: In the head of the HTML doc, I put together this bit of script:


<.script language="JavaScript">

function targetWin(url) {

window.opener.location=(url);

}


In the Get URL pass the URL to the function like this:

On (Release)

Get URL ("javascript:targetWin('">http://www.yoursitehere.com');")

End On

This should take care of it. Tested in both IE and NS.
