Would *I* have suggested it otherwise?  ;)


(I s'pose it should be tested... though when everything is said and done
that's at about No. 48 on my To Do List...)

Mine too.. I think it that case, by default it becomes the homework
assignment of the person who asked the original question...

<tip type="JS DOM">

"window.open()" have openers
