bizarre parent form refresh behaviour

[rbeynon]

I've just migrated a useful javascript tool from an older, legacy site to a new site, and this has worked well, with one frustrating exception..

Old site:
http://www.bi.umist.ac.uk/users/mjfr...rs/Makebuf.asp
when the 'recipe' button is clicked, the popuo window is fine, but the underlying form on the parent window does not refresh

New site:
http://www.liv.ac.uk/buffers/buffercalc.html
the moment the child window pops up, the parent form refrehses to default values, which I don't want.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated
p.s. I know it's amateur code, but it has worked for nearly 10years!

Thanks in advance

Add this to the onclick handler:

onclick="calcBuffer(this.form); return false;"

Thanks Fang, that just works a treat. I think I understand why,it's saying don't return control to the parent, yes?

You've made my day!
