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
