Hi,

I'm sure someone has asked this question before, but the search os down :-(

Can you open a new window in the background? I need it to actually open in the background so
Code:
win = window.open();
win.blur();

will not work for me.

Thanks,

Rich
 
try opening it, and then setting the .focus() to something on your page --

I think that should work just fine.

That won't work for me, because the window that I'm opening opens in full screen mode. Then I resize it in order to elimnate the titlebar, frame, statusbar, etc.

The problem is that it sort of flashes when the window opens, since it actually opens in the foreground and the is moved to the background. That "flash" is the reason i need it to actually open in the background.

Thanks though. Anyone have any other suggestions?
