Re: [ajug-members]: javascript window.open single window

[ISMAIL MOHAMMAD <ismail_mohammad@yahoo.com>]

If you are opening a window with a windowname, then
that should take care of it.

You can also do couple of things in the code while
opening a window:
1.In the 'else section' of your code where you check
for refocus, check for the existense of the popup
window and then focus it to the same window.

2.Try this option: Instead of two if conditions, first
check to see if the window is open by window name and
then open a window and focus it.

Hope this might be of some help.

Thanks
Ismail
