Window opening behind parent

I've got a button my webpage that when clicked will open another
window. Different criteria on the page will deteremine which window
gets opened when the button is clicked. I have a switch statement in my

code and then I set up javascript that I register back to the client.
This is all working fine except for one thing. The window that opens,
opens behind the parent window. I was really hoping that it would open
in front. I believe that the auto postback functionality of the button
is causing this but I'm not 100% sure.

Here's a sample of what I'm trying to do.
switch(this.cal lType.SelectedI tem.ToString(). Trim())
{
case "Meetme":
case "Dialout":
scriptblock += "<script language='JavaS cript'>";
scriptblock += "<!-- \n";
scriptblock += "var winprint=window .open('MeetMe.a spx?sakEvent=" +
SakEvent +"',null,'heigh t=900, width=1000, scrollbars',
'winprint.focus ()', 'return false');\n";
scriptblock += "// -->";
scriptblock += "</script>";
Page.RegisterCl ientScriptBlock ("clientScript" , scriptblock);
break;
case "Q&A":
scriptblock += "<script language='JavaS cript'>";
scriptblock += "<!-- \n";
scriptblock += "var winprint=window .open('QA.aspx? sakEvent=" +
SakEvent +"',null,'heigh t= 900, width=1000,
scrollbars','wi nprint.focus()' , 'return false');\n";
scriptblock += "// -->";
scriptblock += "</script>";
Page.RegisterCl ientScriptBlock ("clientScript" , scriptblock);
break;
case "Roll Call":
scriptblock += "<script language='JavaS cript'>";
scriptblock += "<!-- \n";
scriptblock += "var winprint=window .open('RollCall .aspx?sakEvent= " +
SakEvent +"',null,'heigh t= 400, width=1000,
scrollbars','wi nprint.focus()' , 'return false');\n";
scriptblock += "// -->";
scriptblock += "</script>";
Page.RegisterCl ientScriptBlock ("clientScript" , scriptblock);
break;
case "Recording" :
scriptblock += "<script language='JavaS cript'>";
scriptblock += "<!-- \n";
scriptblock += "var winprint=window .open('Recordin g.aspx?sakEvent =" +
SakEvent +"',null,'heigh t= 400, width=1000,
scrollbars','wi nprint.focus()' , 'return false');\n";
scriptblock += "// -->";
scriptblock += "</script>";
Page.RegisterCl ientScriptBlock ("clientScript" , scriptblock);
break;
}

Can anyone see what I need to add so that my new window will open in
the front>

In some old Javascript we have, we try to determine whether the client is IE or Netscape (assume for the purposes of this question that the question can be resolved satisfactorily) and tailor the script to it: var myOpen=open(url, 'subWin', 'width=600, height=400,*A*resizable=1,scrollbars=1' ); if ( myOpen && !myOpen.closed ) { myOpen.focus(); } *B*

Hello, I am trying to open a window containing an image and I would like the image to be flush against the window -- i.e. have no padding or border. Can I make this happen with a single call to a window.open function? I would prefer not to create a separate HTML page. So far all I have is the basic var cwin = window.open('images/KJV-THANKS.gif', 'Thanks', 'width=243,height=420,'); cwin.focus();

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
