Hmmm, you're right, I'm wrong ... it does not work in Nav 4.76 Mac
either, the edition of my JavaScript book was from the time of Nav
4.04 and I don't see any notes that would indicate it's not supported
everywhere from Nav 2 and IE 3 on up, but I've never actually used it
- me and my big mouth ...
However it DOES work in IE 5 Mac - maybe try this:
var theWindow = null;
function myWindow(theURL) {
theWindow =
window.open(theURL,'','status,resizable,copyhistory,menubar,location,toolbar,scrollbars,directories');
theWindow.focus();
}
