problem with onClick - open browser window

[jlevine]

I've set up a page that should open the browser window when a specific word is clicked. The correct window does get opened, but the whole homepage also gets opened on top.

My references look like this:
<a href="#" target="_blank" onClick="MM_openBrWindow('abc.html','','width=700,height=300')">ABC Daycare</a><br>
The ABC Daycare page comes up, but so does the whole page.

Anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

but so does the whole page."
...meaning that your starting page gets re-opened in whole new window along with 'abc.html'...or does the 'abc.html' contain same copy of the original?

It was the homepage that was opening on top. I've found a solution on the web - I added "return false" to the code and it's working fine now. I don't understand quite why, but it's working so I'm happy.

onClick="MM_openBrWindow('abc.html','','width=700,height=280'); return false"

Thanks.

may have something to do with the rest of the JS in your page...for test you can fill in the rest of the 'proporties' of the page being opened (scrolling etc.)
gald you got it working.
All the best!
