Thanks, but if you had read the entire post and tried my examples you will
see that what I require is indeed possible by operning the window as a
modeless dialog. My problem is that it cannot be used as the target of a
form for some reason.
It can not be used as the target of a form because it is a modeless dialog.

As you can see, it does not have a "name" attribute, and as such can not be
the TARGET of a form.
As for what you want being possible. When I visit your stripped down version
at <url:
http://www.mississippiprinting.com/M...windowtest.asp /> I receive
the following error message in Firefox 0.8:
Error: window.showModelessDialog is not a function
Source File:
http://www.mississippiprinting.com/M...windowtest.asp
Line: 25
so it's obviously not possible. When I visit the main page you posted at <url:
http://www.mississippiprinting.com/M...Size=8%20x%209
/> in Firefox 0.8 and scroll left or right, I receive four instances of:
Error: document.all has no properties
Source File:
http://www.mississippiprinting.com/M...Size=8%20x%209
Line: 144
so whatever you're trying to do there isn't working either. Not to mention
your site seems designed for a browser width I do not use, forcing me to
scroll from side to side to see the content. I especially like:
<select onchange="DoCosting();" name="FreightOption" size="1" style="width:
212; height: 212"> which produces a square <select> filled with ... nothing.
And DATE JOB TO PRINTER and DESIRED DELIVERY DATE don't do anything in Firefox
0.8 except cause the following errors:
Error: show_calendar is not defined
Source File: javascript
:void(window.__tabextensions__LastEvent = (new
Date()).getTime());show_calendar('ProductForm.Proj ectReleaseDate');
Line: 1
Error: show_calendar3 is not defined
Source File: javascript
:void(window.__tabextensions__LastEvent = (new
Date()).getTime());show_calendar3('ProductForm.Des iredDeliveryDate');
Line: 1
I could go on, but I can't be bothered.
In short: don't expect all your customers to be using the newest version of
Internet Explorer, don't expect all your customers to be using a browser
viewport width that makes your site look "pretty", don't expect those
customers who are using the newest version of Internet Explorer and have their
viewport width set appropriate to have Javascript enabled.
