Auto-refresh a parent window while keeping the focus on the child window

Hi,

I've got a Web page which can become a parent window : some links use "window.open" to open the desired link into a new child window.
This parent window has got an auto-refresh functionality (<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="60">).

My point is that when I'm looking at the child window, I don't want the parent window to take the focus when refreshing.

Does anybody have an idea ?

Thanks !
Nathalie.

It shouldn't take the focus unless you have a focus statement onload.

You were right : that was the point ! I hadn't noticed it because I'm not the original coder...
Thanks a lot :)
