I have a page that has to submit a form to a popup window. So, I have to do theform.target = “_blank”; theform.submit();. However, when it opens, I would like to remove the address bar and buttons. Is there a way to get to these properties after the window has been opened? Thanks.

@cakewalkr7authorMay 30.2006 — Thanks. I was trying to do something very similar in the function that submits the form. However, I was setting the new window object to a variable and trying to set the target = to the variable. I instead needed to set it to the name of the window I was opening. Thanks!

Success!
