Hi all,

Where can I find a script which will open a new browser window with a new website when a user visits a certain page n my site?

I want user to redirect to another website without leaving the existing one. Is it possible?

Thanks :D

did you try onload?

<body onload="window.open('http://www.mydomain.com/file_name.php');return true;">

Thanks Louie got myself sorted from a visual pop up creater.

<!-- TWO STEPS TO INSTALL POPUP WINDOW:

1. Paste the first into the HEAD of your HTML document
2. Use the code to open the popup page on your site -->

<!-- STEP ONE: Copy this code into the HEAD of your HTML document -->

<HEAD>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
<!-- Idea by: Nic Wolfe (Nic@) -->


<!-- Begin
function popUp(URL) {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,location=1,statusbar=1,menubar=1,resizable=1,width=640,height=480,left = 640,top = 360');");
}
// End -->
</script>


<!-- STEP TWO: Paste this onLoad event handler into the BODY tag -->

<BODY onLoad="javascript:popUp('http://xxx.domain.com')">

<!-- Script Size: 0.73 KB -->

I wonder how can I put it in the background rather than coming in the front?

Cheers

look into focus

<!--body onload='self.focus();'-->
<BODY onLoad="javascriptopUp('http://xxx.domain.com');self.focus();">

Sorry guys if I posted it in the php forums. The existing site is in php so I thought there might be a way to do it in php. Pardon me I am a newbie.

Back to the topic, as louie mentioned about focus thing? How can I put it in the background please?

Anyone?

Thanks

i believe window.focus() is what you want. after you call the popup.
