how to open a new window using script src

Use this script to create a new window and then populate the new window with your variables. Do remember that both the main and sub-window have to be served up by the same domain. Otherwise this is a security risk and is not premitted.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" 
  "http://www.w3.org/tr/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<title>Main Window</title>
<script type="text/javascript">
// global variable for subwindow reference
var newWindow;
// generate and fill the new window
function makeNewWindow() {
    // make sure it isn't already opened
    if (!newWindow || newWindow.closed) {
        newWindow = window.open("","sub","status,height=200,width=300");
        // delay writing until window exists in IE/Windows
        setTimeout("writeToWindow()", 50);
    } else if (newWindow.focus) {
        // window is already open and focusable, so bring it to the front
        newWindow.focus();
    }
}
function writeToWindow() {
    // assemble content for new window
    var newContent = "<html><head><title>Secondary  Window</title></head>";
    newContent += "<body><h1>This is a script-created window.</h1>";
    newContent += "</body></html>";
    // write HTML to new window document
    newWindow.document.write(newContent);
    newWindow.document.close(); // close layout stream
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Communicating with a New Window</h1>
<hr /> 
<form>
<input type="button" value="Create New Window" onclick="makeNewWindow();" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
