New Window issues

Hey,

I’m pretty new to javascript and all that good stuff. Most of what I know I’ve had to teach myself by playing around with codes.

I need some help on this particular piece of code, however. I got this from one of those free code websites and it does just what I need it to do. I need it to display a fading slideshow of images, with each image being clickable and able to be opened in a new window. It works like a charm.

-HOWEVER-

When it opens in a new window, there is no address bar or back button bar thingy-ma-jigger. This is frustrating to me and to customers because if they click any other link on the page in the new window, they can’t go back a page or go anywhere else.

Here’s my code, hopefully you might be able to give me an idea of what to do and how to do it. I don’t even know if what I want can be done, but I thought I’d go ahead and ask.

if(!window.JSFX)
JSFX = new Object();

document.write(‘<STYLE TYPE=”text/css”>.slideTrans{ filter:revealTrans(duration=1,transition=0) }</STYLE>’);
document.write(‘<STYLE TYPE=”text/css”>.slideBlend{ filter:blendTrans(duration=1) }</STYLE>’);

JSFX.ClickableSlide = function(theImg, theUrl, theTarget)
{
this.theImg = theImg;
this.theUrl = theUrl == null ? “#” : theUrl;
this.theTarget = theTarget == null ? “_blank” : theTarget;
this.loadImg = new Image();
}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow = function()
{
this.id = JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.getId();
this.timeId = null;
this.imgName = this.id + “_I”;
this.urlId = this.id + “_U”;
this.currSlide = 0;
this.slides = new Array();
this.startDelay = 0;
this.slideDelay = 3000;
this.transType = 24;
this.transDuration= 1;

window[this.id] = this;

}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.slideNo = 0;
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.getId = function() {return “JSFX_cs_” + JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.slideNo++;}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.addSlide = function(theImg, theUrl, theTarget)
{
this.slides[this.slides.length]=new JSFX.ClickableSlide(theImg, theUrl, theTarget);
}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.setStartDelay = function(startDelay) {this.startDelay = startDelay*1000;}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.setSlideDelay = function(slideDelay) {this.slideDelay = slideDelay*1000;}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.setTransType = function(transType) {this.transType = transType;}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.setTransDuration = function(transDuration) {this.transDuration = transDuration;}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.setTimeout = function(f, t) {return setTimeout(“window.”+this.id+”.”+f, t);}

JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.toHtml = function()
{
return(‘
<IMG SRC=”‘+this.slides[0].theImg+'”
NAME=”‘+this.imgName+'”
class=”slide’+(this.transType==24?”Blend”:”Trans”)+'”
alt=”Click to see this product”>’);
}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.setSlide = function()
{
var img = document.images[this.imgName];
if(img.filters != null)
{
if(this.transType < 24) img.filters[0].Transition=this.transType;
img.filters[0].Duration = this.transDuration;
img.filters[0].apply();
}
img.src = this.slides[ this.currSlide ].theImg;
if(img.filters != null)
img.filters[0].play();
}

JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.animate = function()
{
this.currSlide = (this.currSlide + 1) % this.slides.length;
this.setSlide();
this.timeId = this.setTimeout(“animate()”, this.slideDelay);
}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.start = function()
{
for(var i=0 ; i<this.slides.length ; i++)
this.slides[i].loadImg.src = this.slides[i].theImg;
var theImg = document.images[this.imgName];
theImg.onmouseup = this.clickFn;
theImg.ss = this;
this.timeId = this.setTimeout(“animate()”, this.startDelay + this.slideDelay);
}
JSFX.ClickableSlideShow.prototype.clickFn = function()
{
var ss = this.ss;
var slide = ss.slides[ss.currSlide];
if( slide.theTarget.charAt(0) ==”_blank”)
{
if(slide.theTarget == “_blank”)
window.open(slide.theUrl, ss.id);
else
document.location = slide.theUrl;
}
else
{
if(this.nw && !this.nw.closed) this.nw.close();
this.nw=window.open(slide.theUrl, ss.id, slide.theTarget);
this.nw.focus();
}
}
