[Javascript] Popup window stumper

[Terrence Donnelly]

Thanks for the advice, but I tried inserting alerts and they never
appear.  I've got error messages turned on, but they don't appear
either.  I guess the browser somehow considers the popup to be
a separate, unreachable, window.  Anyway, I've given up on it,
and decided just to insert the code directly into the calling
page.  Then it works fine.
