I'm not sure if this would work, but I am guessing that your popup immediately opens and your original window didn't do a thing. If you allow your parent authenticate and go to a authenticated page, it would be fine. Then simply have that page popup the window that you wanted. This idea is similar to the way many sites having an auto-popup of advertisement when you enters their main page. Give that a try.
Ricky -----Original Message----- From: Kennedy Clark [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, February 14, 2002 8:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Popup Browser Windows & Tomcat Realm Authentication I'm using Tomcat 4.0.1 to develop a web-site application that needs to use popup browser windows. I have the main page protected by a JDBCRealm and it's working nicely. Now that I've added the popups, the popup window opens fine using the authentication of the main windows. However, when you close the popup, you cannot do anything in the main windows without having to re-authenticate. I've tried using both a "target=" attribute on an "<a href=", as well as a JavaScript "onClick="open(..." to create the popup windows -- the results are the same -- the authentication follows the child window and then dies with it. How can I fix this? All help greatly appreciated!
