variable in function for a new window

[nescio]

hello,

i have got a javascript that opens a new window.
when i call the javascript function i want to ad a variable.
what you see on the pop up depends on the variable.

but the variable in the functions does not work.
on the pop up page it has the value:
$nummer = $_GET['formulier']
echo 'nummer: ' . $nummer
gives: nummer: nummer

i have tried changing the quotes in the function but it does not work
----------------------- source function call ------------
<a href='#' onClick="javascript:popupOpenen(1)">info</a>
--------------------------------------------------------

-------------------- source javascript function ---------------
<script type="text/javascript">
function popupOpenen(nummer){
win=window.open("popup.php?formulier=nummer","","t op=275,left=5,
width=900px, height=380px, scrollbars=yes");
}
</script>
-------------------------------------------------------------

thanks

How did you try changing them? What does "it does not work" mean?
The personal pronoun is capitalized when writing English, particularly
in a newsgroup where lower-case "i" is a common variable name

-------------------- source javascript function ---------------
<script type="text/javascript">
function popupOpenen(nummer){
win=window.open("popup.php?formulier=nummer","","t op=275,left=5,
width=900px, height=380px, scrollbars=yes");
}
</script>

When you include the name of a variable inside quotes, all you are
passing is the name of the variable.
The width and height should not specify units.
There is no need to store the window object in a variable that you
immediately discard:

function popupOpenen(nummer) {
window.open("popup.php?formulier="+nummer,
"",
"top=275,left=5,width=900,height=380,scrollbars=ye s");
}

it works now, thanks

Hi all,

Can someone tell me where I'm going wrong?

I have created a function to open a new window on a form submit, The
function opens the new window ok but the window height parameter I've tried
passing to the function just won't work!

Ideally I want to pass the width and height attributes, but being new to JS
I thought I'd make it real simple first...

Code follows

**Form tag
<form action="Processor.php" method="post" target="NewWin" onSubmit="return
!PopForm(875);">

**Function code
function PopForm(h)
{
NewWin = window.open('','NewWin','width=400,height=+h');
NewWin.focus();
}

Any help kindly appreciated

Hi thanks for the code snip..

but could you please explain why the quote goes before the +h so that I know
for future reference?

What happens if I then want to add the width as an argument? I can't do
width='+w so a little explanation would be very much appreciated

Regards

If the 'h' is inside the quotes, it is treated as a literal and you get
an 'h' character. If it is outside the quotes, it is treated as a variable.

What happens if I then want to add the width as an argument? I can't do
width='+w so a little explanation would be very much appreciated

function PopForm(w, h)
{
NewWin = window.open('','NewWin','width=' + w + '400,height=' + h);
...

Here '+' means concatenate.
