window.open not working in IE

Hi all,

I am trying to build a pop-up into a Web page. The pop-up should open when
clicking a button. It works fine on Mozilla and Opera, but Internet Explorer
refuses to open the pop-up. How can I make it work?
The code is:

<input type="button" value="Help"
onClick="javasc ript:window.ope n('help.htm','H elp on units
field','width=4 00,height=200,l eft=200,top=200 ,resizable')" />

and the page is here:
http://www.amtrad.it/feewizardol.php (The "Help" buttons do not work in IE.)

Thanks for any hint!

remove the spaces from the window name, and remove the un-needed javascript:

<input type="button" value="Help"
onClick="window .open('help.htm ','Help_on_unit s_field','width =400,height=20
0,left=200,top= 200,resizable') " />

Works in my IE6.

Hi there, I have a form that contains a link button. When the user clicks the link button I need to enable a couple of other buttons on the page and open a new browser window giving it focus (keeping it on top). I have most of it working but I can't get it all working. I can either have the window open and disable the buttons with the new window in the background, or I can have the new window in the foreground but not be able to disable...

Up until a few weeks ago, javascript code like window.open("http://mydomain.com", "windowName"); would always bring my new or reused window to the top, with focus. Lately, Firefox (Deer park alpha 2) only brings it to the top if the window is new. If it's being reused, the window does not come to the foreground (with IE 6 it does). Is there a new way in Mozilla/Firefox that I can ensure that this

Hi, I want to set a picture on the fly. For this I have a html file with only an <img> tag - kind of a placholder. So I do myWindow=window.open("data/myFile.html"). Then I set the src attribute of the img object to the image I ant to show. I thought I could do this by myWindow.img.src but this does not work. Even myWindow.img.src.URL gives me an undefined so I wonder, is DOM access of an object I get via "window.open" possible at all?
