    darn window.open problem..shucks....

    Hello,

    Can someone kindly tell me what is wrong with this code?

    A simple page with a link that when clicked uses window.open but when I open
    it in IE6 and click on the link I get 'Line 12 Invalid Argument. Line 12 is
    the last line.

    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
    <meta name="GENERATOR " content="Micros oft FrontPage 4.0">
    <meta name="ProgId" content="FrontP age.Editor.Docu ment">
    <title>New Page 1</title>
    </head>
    <body>
    <a href="testjava. htm" onClick="window .open('freemob. html', 'Free Mobile',
    config='height= 300,width=300') " target="_self"> Click
    Here</a>
    </body>
    </html>

    Thanks in advance,

    RG.

      I get the error on line 8, and the javascript debugger points to the
      window.open call (unsurpricingly ).

      The error is that "Free Mobile" contains a space. The second argument
      to the window.open function is the name of the window, not its title.
      As a name, it must contain only letters, digits, and underscores, and
      must start with a letter (starting with an underscore is reserved for
      "_blank" etc.).

      Apart from that, the "config=" is irrelevant and can be removed.
