Trouble creating popup window

I’m just trying to create a simple popup window using JS, but the console keeps telling me that “window” is not defined. I thought window was a standard reference to the current window though…

[code=php]<html>
<head>
<title>This is a test</title>
<script language=”JavaScript”>
function popup(URL) {
window.open(URL, ‘This is only a test.’, ‘scrollbars=1,statusbar=1,resizable=1,width=90,height=90’);
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad=”javascript:popup(‘file://C:whatever.htm’)”>
</body>
</html>[/code]

Any ideas as to what’s going on?

@A1ien51Aug 15.2005 — do not even bother doing an onload pop up wince pop up blockers willnot even let it through.

A problem with your pop up is "'This is only a test." remove the spaces and period. You also do not need javascript:

@omgitsgirauthorAug 15.2005 — I know I don't really need Javascript for this, but I'm trying to create the popup from a VRML model, and I have to use Javascript there.

Your suggestion worked, but the VRML is still giving me trouble...

But that's for another webforum.

Thank you ?

Success!
