Hello all,
I am trying to check if my new window is open and if it is change the url.
This works until I use the x in the corner to close the window. At that
point i get an error when i try to open the window again. I believe that it
is because newWindow is still active. How do I close newWindow when it is
unloaded or closed by the x. If this is truely the problem.
function openWindow()
{
if (typeof (newWindow) == "undefined" || newWindow.open == false)
{
newWindow = window.open("ht tp://www.yahoo.com", "","width=400,h eight=400");
newWindow.focus ();
return false;
}
else
{
newWindow.locat ion.href = "http://www.msn.com"
}
}
Here's my solution, seems a little redundant though.
function openWindow()
{
if (typeof (newWindow) == "undefined" || newWindow.open == false)
{
newWindow = window.open("ht tp://www.yahoo.com", "","width=400,h eight=400");
newWindow.focus ();
return false;
}
else
{
newWindow.close ()
newWindow = window.open("ht tp://www.msn.com/","","width=400 ,height=400");
newWindow.focus ();
return false;
}
}
Any help would be great, but it's not urgent as I have something that works.

Hey, I have some sample code, it's so old, I'm not sure it works,
but why don't you try this:
if (oWindow2==null || oWindow2.closed )
.....
where oWindow2 is the object reference (not the name of the window),
and is saved as a global javascript variable (outside any function).
This ostensibly tests to see if the window is closed.

But, if it's not open, I don't want to open it . . . using
window.open will open it if it doesn't exist, even if the url in that

The situation is: A main window opens child windows one at a time as
the user requests, each with its own name. The user may click in any

Don't know if this is the right place to post this JavaScript issue.
If not, could someone point me in the right direction please.
I am trying to make a "cross browser compliant" floating iFrame.
Not real fancy, just load, resize and move.
But, I do not have the browsers, OSs and different machines (like Mac) to
test the code on.
So I need some help to see where this basic example of works and does not
work.

Hello,
I am trying to open a window containing an image and I would like
the image to be flush against the window -- i.e. have no padding or
border. Can I make this happen with a single call to a window.open
function? I would prefer not to create a separate HTML page. So far
all I have is the basic
var cwin = window.open('images/KJV-THANKS.gif',
'Thanks', 'width=243,height=420,');
cwin.focus();

Overview:
Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
