    Hello,
    I have a href linking from a popup to a target page on the browser so that the user isn't bothered by more windows opening. The popup needs to stay untouched. This code is working in IE, Chrome, Safari, and FF 3.6, but stopped working in FF 4.

    Is this something new? Any ideas would be most appreciated.

    On target page, I have this code in the header (from this page, the popup was launched). This is a full browser page.
    <script type="text/javascript">
    window.name = "stnmain";
    </script>

    The Popup page code looks like this:
    <a href='index.php' target='stnmain'>Link 123ABC</a>

    This works fine in every browser I've tested except FF4. Help!
