ok. I am making a page on my site which will have the embedded windows media player. but I dont want to restrict people from having to have the whole site open to listen. so I want to have a link that will open a popup window with the player in that. dont know how though. I already have the html file specially made for the popup (it is HERE (http://pokeradio.web1000.com/listenpop.html))

any help would be appreciated.

Try something like this...

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function openwin(url)
{
window.open(url,"Window Name","width=400,heigh=300")
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="yourpage.htm" onclick="openwin(this.href); return false;">Open Music Page</a>

hmm. didnt seem to work.

what was the link that went into the href="" spot? one that would only allow the onclick="" value to run? I forget what is was.

Sorry. Try this instead:

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function openwin(url)
{
window.open(url, "winname", "width=400,height=300");
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="yourpage.htm" onclick="openwin(this.href); return false;">Open Music Page</a>

The link it will open is yourpage.htm. If users have javascript disabled, the link will simply open in the current window.
