    script crash explorer but not mozilla`

    HI
    I've written a simpole script to open a new window with an image and
    resize the window depending on the image size: it is

    function fitToSize()
    {
    if( window.document .images )
    window.resizeTo (window.documen t.images[0].width+100,
    window.document .images[0].height+50);
    }

    function animUrl(url)
    {
    var p = 'scrollbars=yes ,resizable=yes, toolbar=no,' +
    'menubar=no,sta tus=no,location =no,left=85,top =20';

    var win = window.open("", "animWindow",p) ;
    win.document.wr iteln('<html>') ;
    win.document.wr iteln('<head>') ;
    win.document.wr iteln('<link type="text/css" rel="stylesheet "
    href="../style/styleThomas.css ">');
    win.document.wr iteln('<script
    src="../js/animWindow.js"> </script>');
    win.document.wr iteln('</head>');
    win.document.wr iteln('<body id="animWindow "
    onload="fitToSi ze();">');
    win.document.wr iteln('<img name ="imgTag" class="center" src="' +
    url + '">');
    win.document.wr iteln('<p><a href="javascrip t:;"
    onclick="self.c lose();">Close window</a></p>');
    win.document.wr iteln('</body>');
    win.document.wr iteln('</html>');
    win.document.cl ose();
    //win.resizeTo(wi n.document.imag es[0].width,200);
    win.focus();

    return false;
    }

    It is very simple. I call it with the following in the html pages:
    <a href="javascrip t:;" onclick="return animUrl('image. gif');">A Gif
    image</a>

    Clicking on the link crash explorer that immediately freezes.
    It works well everywhere else, excpet Opera that complain with an
    obnoxious message.

    Does anybody see what's obviously wrong in my code?
    Thanks

    Thomas

      I don't get a crash, but I do get an 'access denied' error. I think
      it's because of a violation of the 'Same Origin Policy': you can't
      access properties in a window or frame that didn't originate from the
      same domain as the accessing document. As there is no URL at all, IE
      probably assumes that no-one should get access - but that's just a
      guess. I had the same problem, but there is a simple solution:
      include a variable on the calling page that the image window can use
      to get the URL. You could actually write a HTML page (rather that
      generate one entirely at run-time) that only fills-in the image
      source:

      <!-- Your !DOCTYPE, HEAD, BODY, etc. for the image window -->
      <SCRIPT type="text/javascript">
      <!--
      document.writel n( '<IMG src="' + window.opener.i mageURL + '">' );
      // -->
      </SCRIPT>
      <!-- The rest of your document -->

      Hope you have better luck,
      Mike

          I did exactly what you said and it works.
          My only regret is that I have to declare this variable imageURL in
          every page that use this script.
          But thank you very much, since Explorer does not crash anymore.
