Thanks, David. Any chance I could get more specific info on the problems each condition creates? * Pop-up Confirmation boxes * Spawning new browser windows * Spawning specifically sized browser windows (e.g. 640 x 480) * Spawning browser windows without standard toolbars etc. Perhaps the answers seem obvious to people with more experience, but I'm still a beginner to all this and I'd like to understand the problems as much as possible. -- Paul David Poehlman wrote: > they're all a pain in the neck.
