checking for window existance

[Lambuz]

Is there any way to check the existance of a window by the name ?

I'm using this code:
window.open("ht tp://www.google.com" ,'targetWin1')

If I open a window using previous code without getting immediatly
return value of open method, can I get it in a second moment ? For
example using the value of param sName of open method ?

You probably could have cut out the ASP forums ...

What does that have to do with the point of the article Ray pointed you at?
Its point was that you should NOT cp so many groups.

Which is MORE than enough. Especially considering that you included
off-topic groups in your massive cp. This question has nothing to do with
asp (I'm replying from .inetserver.asp .general).

Given your blatant refusal to comply with netiquette, I am hesitant to
provide an answer to your question. However ...
The answer is "no". The object returned by the window.open method is only
available to the code that called it. You would need to use API methods
which are not available to browser scripts to enumerate all open windows on
a machine and grab a handle to one of the open windows.
