Re: Bug with popup windows
Hi,
I tester on my side and it is working fine. Can you provide an url to a public page when I can reproduce the bug ?
Thanks.

Re: Bug with popup windows
I am having the exact same problem. The page I'm testing on is not a public page, so it wouldn't do any good for me to give out the URL. This popup is opened by the following js code:
function popupAlert(message, useOkCancel) { var okCancelFlag = useOkCancel == null ? false : useOkCancel; var dialogOptions = "center:yes;help:no;status:no;scroll:no;dialogHeight:250px;dialogWidth:500px;" if(window.showModalDialog != null) { popupAlertWin = window.showModalDialog("/alertPopup.aspx?dealerId=1&confirmationType=" + (okCancelFlag ? 2 : 1) + "&message=" + escape(message),null,dialogOptions); } else { popupAlertWin = popupWin(popupAlertWin,"popupAlertWin",true,"/alertPopup.aspx?dealerId=1&confirmationType=" + (okCancelFlag ? 2 : 1) + "&message=" + escape(message),250,500,false,false,false,false,false,false); } return popupAlertWin; }

Re: Bug with popup windows
Well,
I understand the problem now. I was using "window.open" for my test.
I tested showModalDialog and it is locking IETester window. Do you have the same behaviour (that is IETester window still there but unable to click on it), or do you have a crash ?
I will look at this problem and try to provide a correction.

Re: Bug with popup windows
No crash, but when I click within IETester, I get the Windows "ding" that I would expect with a modal dialog open. I have to end task to close IETester.

Re: Bug with popup windows
good morning. I also have a bug while trying to open popups. I went on my website : http://cynferdd.free.fr , and when I clicked on the logo to open a popup which contains the rest of the site, I can't see the popup. It opens another window with this url : http://cynferdd.free.fr/#
I did this 2 times with IE 5.5, and one time with IE 6, and then there was a crash :

I have IE6 at my work, so I tested and the code goes well here ^^
However, I wanted (as it's my first post) to congratulate you for this really helpful software. I have IE7 at home, and so I couldn't test with old versions of IE. Thanks a lot

Re: Bug with popup windows
Hi,
Thanks for the congrats 
I tested and can reproduce the problem. For IE6, I get an Out Of Memory bug. I just don't know what is happening ! Really strange. I will try to correct it on a future release.
I will also check why the popup window does not open.
I managed to make showModalDialog working so it should be ok on the next release.

Re: Bug with popup windows
window.open isn't opening a window but rather a new tab. In a system that I develop there is extensive javascript that works between a window and it's parent and none of this works.
Our js to launch a new window looks like: var oWindow = window.open(sURL, '', 'width=' + lWidth + ',height=' + lHeight + ',resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,menubar=no,status=yes,top=' + lWinTop + ',left=' + lWinLeft);
Thanks,

Re: Bug with popup windows
yes, window.open is opening, but it is not returning the new window object. I am aware of this limitation, I know how to correct the problem and it should be solved soon in a future release.
