Hi Everyone,

I'm working on an html page that I'm using small images as links to open new windows in order to display larger versions of the pictures.

I'm using <a href=javascript:eek:penHer()>Open</a>, sizing the new window to fit the image, and positioning it at (0,0).

I'd like to know if you (yourself) have run into any problems with any Firewalls, Toolbars, Browser Privacy Settings, or any other programs that interfere with your display in a new window opened with javascript?

I appreciate your input and thank you.



For every problem, there's a solution and every solution brings it's own set of problems.
 
hey Dan,

I haven't as yet experienced any problems with the script yet but I've noticed that with my firewalls or browser privacy settings are set too high that some functions don't work when I visit some sites. These may be cookie related.

Functions like popup windows and form submissions.

I'm just wondering if I'll have any trouble with opening a new window to diplay pics.

I guess the worse thing that could happen is that the user wouldn't see the pic.
