linking problem

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 24.2004

I have just made a popup window which the only way to close it is to add this ‘<a href=”javascript:lockU=0;self.close()”>Close This Box</a>’

Now what I want it to do is when you click it I want it to open up a webpage in another window (lets just say http://www.google.com) and also close the popup window so to just leave the ‘http://www.google.com‘ window open.

I have spent about a week trying to do this but since I am no good at Javascript I need some help.

You can not act upon another window unless between those two windows (popup and window) there is an opener relationship.

If so, and if you want to change the opener, than use this function in popup:


function bla(){

window.opener.location.href = 'newpage.html';

self.close;

}
