Deacon, you have totally saved me! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I took out the auto close since IE prompts you if you want to close it or not but it totally worked the way I needed it to! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I'll give you the credit, don't worry!

Just to explain myself a little better. I am contracting with one of the large telecoms to support their webcasts which serve as their internal communications. It's the standard talking head next to powerpoint but rather than using an out of the box software/hardware package for webcasting they had someone custom build the whole thing from the ground up. Unfortunately this person passed away a few months ago and I am trying to use his code.

What the company wants to do is also distribute the webcast via satellite TV to it's various offices. They can't just send the video because then they wouldn't see the powerpoint. They bought this box that can send a web link on the satellite channel on certain times automatically.

How the webcast is built is that the link I send out takes them to a standard webpage with all the information and FAQs on it as well as a "view webcast" button. In order to see the webcast the user needs to hit that button.

They wanted to automate the process for the box feeding the satellite which your code is perfect for.

Thank you again!

Glad to help.

I find this thread totally baffling. You started out by saying you already knew how to use window.open(), and close the thread by saying that the window.open() method totally saved you. If you didn't know about window.open(), you saw it mentioned in the very first reply to your question...

As long as you're happy, I guess. <shrug>

I don't know javascript at all really. I'm using code I didn't build. I can somewhat change things around as I need to but something new required a little help.
