I have seen the general problem of an error popup window addressed before but
not my specific problem.

When I get an error, my servlet displays an error jsp page in my browser window.
I want an error popup instead,
so I wrote some JavaScript to do that and included that in my error jsp file.  I
would like the error popup to display
over the page where the error occurred.  My problem is that a new, blank browser
window is opened and then the
error popup displays.  When I close the popup, I'm faced with the blank window,
and I have to use the back button to
return to the previous window.  This will be very confusing to the user.  Is
there a way to retain the original window and
display the error popup over it?  Reloading the original page every time there's
an error is probably too costly
performance-wise.

Thanks,
Patty
