Hi
I'm trying to display a couple of modal dialog windows, so that the (inexperienced) user can drag a folder from the cd drive (where the code will be) to a blank floppy. Is this possible? If so why does "file:///a|/" not work as a value for the url? (worked fine when I was trying to do this with winow.open()).
Thanx in advance

OK

Pointless post 'cos I can't have more than one modal window at a time:confused: Can anyone suggest a way of setting up this scenario:
Two pop-up windows, showing different drives, enabling drag and drop between them and retaining focus even if the user has to click on the main page-eg to scroll down or move to the next instruction. ideally one window should be kept open and focussed even when user clicks next button to change main url.

I've got close using onMouseover=window.blur(), but if user clicks inside first popup, then on main window, then tries drag and drop, both pop-ups disappear...

Any advice appreciated now
