Flashers,

We had a similar problem with IE5.5 and popup windows. The popup
window would open up but the parent window would go blank with the text
"[Object]" in it. It appears that the parent is loosing its place as far as
what URL it should be at. So we used the code below on a getUrl() to store
the current location of the parent window to a variable, open the popup
window, and then set the parent window back to the original URL were it
started. It worked like a charm for us.

getURL ("javascript:var
temp=location.href;window.open('case_study.htm','check','menubar=yes,scrollb
ars=yes,resizable=yes,width=550,height=400');location.href=temp");


Good Luck

Does work indeed, but the main pages vanishes and is replaced with a
nearly blank page with '[object Window]' in the upper left window
corner and the 'javascript:window.open(...)'-expression in the 'URL
field'.

I guess it is not what you really wanted... ;)

Best wishes,
