Opening Blank Page from within Pop-up

[Parabola]

Hi there guys,
I'm new to this forum !!! Im a newby.

I was having a problem with a new site I am working on.

I need to be able to open a new browser window from a pop-up.

I have a main page, that has a pop-up window. Inside that pop-up I have a Paypal Form with button, that when pressed I would like to open a Blank NEW Window.

At the moment it is opening the window inside the pop-up....

Is there some Javascript or something I can force a new window, like Break_out_of_frame ??

Hoping you can help.

Warren

Hi Fang
Thanks for your reply.

I was wondering how you would fit that into the action of a form? I tried it (successfully opening the new window) but it's not passing any info...to my Paypal server.

I have this:
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript1.2">
function openwindow()
{
window.open("https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr","mywindow");
}
</SCRIPT>

and a form with this:
<form action="javascript: openwindow()" method="post">
<input type="hidden" name="cmd" value="_xclick">
<input type="hidden" name="business" value="myemail@mybusiness.com">
<input type="hidden" name="quantity" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="item_name" value="My Business">
<input type="hidden" name="item_number" value="Busniess info">
<input type="hidden" name="amount" value="25">
<input type="hidden" name="no_shipping" value="0">
<input type="hidden" name="no_note" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="currency_code" value="AUD">
<input type="hidden" name="lc" value="AU">
<input type="hidden" name="bn" value="PP-BuyNowBF">
<input type="image" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_US/i/btn/x-click-but23.gif" border="0" name="submit" alt="Make payments with PayPal - it's fast, free and secure!">
<img alt="" border="0" src="https://www.paypal.com/en_AU/i/scr/pixel.gif" width="1" height="1">
</form>

<script type="text/javascript">
function openwindow(form)
{
var query="?cmd="+form.cmd.value+"&business="+form.business.value; // and the rest of the required values (plus login info!)
window.open(form.action+encodeURI(query),"mywindow");
return false;
}
</script>

<form action="https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr" onsubmit="openwindow(this);" method="post">
