help with a pop up

[Trinian]

hi everyone

I have created a popup that displays a product I wish to display as a monthly special. This popup pops up when the user loads the page. That is the easy part, I can do that.

What I am having problems with is I want the user to be able to select "Buy Now" or "No Thanks" buttons. If the user selects "no thanks" I just close the window and they are back at the home page. If the user selects "Buy Now" the popup closes and the order page opens in the main window. This is were I am stuck... :(

I have been trying to create a function with "window.opener.document.action = "URL OF ORDER PAGE"+Productcode

and then a <a href="javascript:functionname(productcode-eg5454);" but with no luck.

If anyone could help me with this that would be great.

Thanks Heaps

Trinian.

<a href="product.pl?product-code=eg5454" onclick="if (window.opener && !window.opener.closed) {window.opener.location = this.href; return false}">Buy Now</a>

ok some more help with another popup :)

I am using this code to popup information
"<a href="" onClick="MyWindow=window.open('http://www.petalsflorists.com/popup/customer.htm','Window1','toolbar=no,location=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,r esizable=no,width=500,height=430,left=20,top=20'); return false;">"

the problem I have is the if you click the popup once and then go back to the main page with out closing the window and then try to click it again it doesnt show up :(

I thought of using window.focus() but am not sure how to implement it into this code.

thanks again

You have to give your "href" attribute a real value for the teeming millions who do not use JavaScript or have disabled popups.

<a href="http://www.petalsflorists.com/popup/customer.htm" onclick="myWindow=window.open(this.href, 'Window1', 'scrollbars,resizable,width=500,height=430,left=20,top=20'); myWindow.focus(); return false">
