Hi Pat,
Try the html code. Name it as test.html. The point is frm.target. You
can manipulate that and achieve what you want. But one issue is the
window which pops up will have location bar, buttons, etc., I don't know
how to hide them. If you do manual window.open you won't receive the
submitted values.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" langugage="JavaScript">
<!--
function validateForm(frm)
{
if (frm.name.value == "")
{
alert('name is mandatory');
return false;
}
else
return true
}
function submitForm(frm)
{
if (validateForm(frm))
{
frm.target = "_blank";
return true;
}
else
{
frm.target = "_self";
return false;
}
}
//-->
</script>
</head>
<body>
<form name="frm" action="test.html" onsubmit="return
submitForm(document.frm)">
name: <input type="text" name="name" value="">
<input type="submit" name="run" value="Run">
</form>
</body>
</html>
