Hi.
I need to know how I open a new window in a browser BUT if I already have opend it I want to show my info in the window..
Example:
I got a shopingcart and I want to show a helpwindow.. If the user clicks on help a new window shall open.. If he clicks on another help then the already opend helpwindow shall show the new help..
Best regards Johan Ryberg
For each of your help links, specify the same window name. That way, when the link is clicked, it will load in the already opened window that was given that name.Code:window.open('page.html','name', etc...
So make sure the 'name' properties aren't unique.
One thing to watch out for is the already-opened window will indeed get the new contents, but it will not bump up to the foreground. Anyone know how to make a window pop forward?

<script>
function helpPopUp(help_page)
{
var help_window = window.open(help_page,'hintswindow','width=300,height=300,top=300,left=300');
help_window.focus();
}
</script>
<body>
<a href="#" onclick="helpPopUp('http://www.vbforums.com')">help 1</a><br>
