Creating a new Explorer Window by passing HTML

Casper

I currently have this code:

<script language="javascript">
function init()
{
// load XML source document
var source = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0");
source.async = false;
source.load("record49a36bde.xml");

// load XSLT stylesheet document
var stylesheet = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.4.0");
stylesheet.async = false;
stylesheet.load("detail_view.xsl");

// transform the source using the XSLT stylesheet
target.innerHTML = source.transformNode(stylesheet);
}
</script>
I then need to be able send the html stored in 'target' to a new
explorer window.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Something like :-

var newWindow = window.open();
newWindow.document.innerHTML = target.innerHTML;

or some variation may possibly work.

var newWindow = window.open();
newWindow.document.innerHTML = target.innerHTML;

"document" doesn't nave "innerHTML" property, use "write()" method
instead of.

newWindow.document.write(target.innerHTML);

It will not work, because the `innerHTML' property of any DOM object will
always only evaluate to the code of the content, not to the code of the
container. Therefore, one has to write at least:

var newWindow = window.open();
if (newWindow && newWindow.document)
{
newWindow.document.open();
newWindow.document.write(
'<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"'
+ ' "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">'
+ '<html>'
+ target.innerHTML;
+ '<\/html>');
newWindow.document.close();
}

Since the `outerHTML' property has no broad support, there is an inevitable
loss of information to this approach.

Solid reference but at a minimum point a person to the relevant spot in
that document:

Irrelevant to the post you replied to.

It will not work, because the `innerHTML' property of any DOM object will
always only evaluate to the code of the content, not to the code of the
container. Therefore, one has to write at least:

That does not, at a minimum, satisfy the needs.
var newWindow = window.open();
if (newWindow && newWindow.document)

No test to see if the window was closed by a popup blocker?

Nor does the code do anything with Symantec popup blocking code.
