Webmaster Forum / HTML, CSS, Scripts / JavaScript / February 2007How can I make window appear and go away
Hi, I my Javascript I popup an authentication window using the command; unamePasswdWindow = open("auth.html","","width=500,height=100"); This works fine in IE, and in Firefox 2.x on Windows and Linux, but the open() just returns a null in Firefox 1.5 on Tru64 Unix. Later in the program I try to close the window using; unamePasswdWindow.close(); In IE this works just fine and the window disappears, but in Firefox 2.x on windows the window sticks around. Until I raise it to the top by clicking in it. Then it disappears. Anyone have any suggestions on these 2 problems? The window opening on Tru64 is just an annoyance since I doubt if I will have any customers with that environment. But the window not going away in Firefox is a more serious problem.

Works fine : Always with IE6, or is it with IE 7 ? > Until I raise it to the top by > clicking in it. Then it disappears. re-install Windows :-) Which extensions has your FF ? The AddBlock is actived ? Perhaps could you try unamePasswdWindow.focus(); unamePasswdWindow.close(); or if(unamePasswdWindow && !unamePasswdWindow.closed) unamePasswdWindow.close(); > But the window not going away in Firefox is a > more serious problem. It is very strange indeed. Can't get same scenario. What do your special browsers with : http://stephane.moriaux.perso.orange.fr/truc/popup_oui_non/f_0.htm (take care that page will try to resize its window)  SignatureStephane Moriaux et son (moins) vieux Mac déjà dépassé Stephane Moriaux and his (less) old Mac already out of date > What do your special browsers with : > http://stephane.moriaux.perso.orange.fr/truc/popup_oui_non/f_0.htm > (take care that page will try to resize its window) Do you not confuse yourself by using: http://stephane.moriaux.perso.orange.fr/ ...and... http://perso.orange.fr/stephane.moriaux/ ...?

I don't want to open it in a tab in this case, but how would I do that? >> but the open() just returns a null in Firefox 1.5 on Tru64 Unix. > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > Works fine : Always with IE6, or is it with IE 7 ?

I can open f1 and f2 from the main window and close f1 from f2 and f2 from f1. The close take place instantly.

It is the user who fix that in preferences of his brower. Programmer can do nothing about this choice. >> What do your special browsers with : >> http://stephane.moriaux.perso.orange.fr/truc/popup_oui_non/f_0.htm >> (take care that page will try to resize its window) > > Seems to work fine.

So there is something else in your code that doesn't please to FF Opening-n-closing FI F2 are very similar to what you gave as code (except in my demo we have a little more difficulty : we pass by opener) Don't you open twice (or more) your popup ? Function to avoid to open more than once the popup : function newPop(page) { if(typeof(truc')=='undefined' || !truc || truc.closed) truc = window.open('','','width=300,height=100'); truc.location = page; truc.focus(); } function closePop() { if(typeof(truc')!='undefined' && !truc.closed) truc.close(); else alert('no popup to close !'); } SignatureStephane Moriaux et son (moins) vieux Mac déjà dépassé Stephane Moriaux and his (less) old Mac already out of date I tried the code fragment to prevent multiple opens and closes but that did not help. It must be something subtly wrong in my code.
