The above FAQ section seems fine, but it leaves out one crucial concern:
How to ensure that you aren't unknowingly stacking up windows behind the active ones? When you have a function, such as on most of the product pages at www.seco-larm.com, that creates a new window simply to temporarily display a blowup of a photo or diagram, it's important that that window goes away when it loses focus, or the customer can find himself inundated with these small windows. Here's the code that accomplishes that in all but the most unusual cases. In the Head you put the call to the external js: <CODE><script type="text/javascript" src="VideoAcc.js"></script></CODE> and, <CODE><script language="Javascript"> function PopLink(x){window.open("PopUps/"+x, "popups", "width=450, height=274, resizable=yes, scrollbars=no, left=200, top=200");} function PopLink2(x){window.open("PopUps/"+x, "popups", "width=460, height=430, resizable=yes, scrollbars=no, left=200, top=200");} </script></CODE> and, <code><body style="FONT-FAMILY: Tahoma, Verdana, Arial;" bgcolor=white topmargin=0 leftmargin=0 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 onfocus="closesrchwin()"></code> And, in the external js "VideoAcc.js", <code>var srchwin = false; function opensrchwin() {srchwin = window.open('SearchVideo.htm','mywin','resizable=yes, scrollbars=yes,width=340,height=90'); return false;} function closesrchwin() {if(srchwin) { srchwin.close(); srchwin = false; }}</code> And then the window gets called via a link as: <code><table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0 width=100%><tr><td width=100% align=center><A HREF="java script:PopLink('4PortHub.htm');"><div class=pr><font class=size8>View Enlargement</font></div></a></td></tr></code> This is script kiddie hacking, of course, but someone who has a greater understanding could likely make it more clear, I'm sure...
