Thanks for your response. Perhaps I should be more descriptive.
A link on an aspx page has an onclick event using window.open() to open a
popup aspx page that is resized and moved using javascript at onload(). The
<body> tag has the onblur="window.close()" method because I want the window
to close if the user clicks the underlying window.
The popup window contains text that may not be entirely visible to the user,
so the window.open() features include displaying the window's scrollbar. In
ASP .NET 2003, the scrollbar is functional; the user can click it and scroll
to see all text in the window. The window closes if the user clicks off the
popup window. This is how I expect/intend it to function.
However, in ASP .NET 2005 clicking the scrollbar on the popup window causes
the window to close. This is not the expected action, and not what happens in
ASP .ET 2003.
Interestingly, in ASP .NET 2005 when I use the
window.onblur="window.close()" method the scrollbar functions but the window
does NOT close when the user clicks off the popup window. Obviously the
onblur method is not firing.
What am I missing here? Is there another way I can accomplish this other
than the javascript method that is not working the same in 2005 as it does in
2003?
Thanks for any explanation, advice or ideas.

The same code works fine in ASP.NET 2003.
Any ideas?
What do you expect to happen and what is not occuring? Sounds like its
working in both instances.
