Not sure why yours doesn't validate, but onclick doesn't have to be
caps.
Anyway, this validates:
In your head:
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function newWindow(theWidth,theHeight) {
popup = window.open("","newwin","width=" + theWidth + ",height=" +
theHeight + ",resizable=no,status=no,scrollbars=no")
}
// -->
</script>
Your link:
<a href='file-path' onclick='newWindow(100,100)' target='whatever'>

Hello everyone,
This being my first post to this list, I have what I hope is an easy
question.
After playing with HTML and the like for the past few years, I
have gotten
serious about webdesign over the past few months. The fact
that I have been
tasked to develop a website for my company might have something
to do with
this.
Anyway, I have completed my site and am validating my pages.
The problem I
am running into is that one page has links which open in a popup window
using javascript. The link is as follows :
<a href="dimetech/2004-06-18.htm" onClick="return
popUp('dimetech/2004-06-18.htm', 'imageName',
'width=600,height=400,menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes')">text</a>
Because onClick="return popup uses capital letters the page will not
validate as XHTML1.0 transitional. If I use lowercase letters, the page
validates but the script no longer works.
Does anyone have a solution besides the good old standby, "forget about
validaton"? Is there any way to validate and to have my script work?
Thanks,
Matt
