> This still isn't working. Can someone help?
I am sorry to say this, but you have lost the ability to see things as they are. My first post pointed out the mistakes in your code, my second post was a piece of working code and you still come back and say it isn't working?

If you plan on ignoring our posts and advice, do let us know in advance.

I am sorry. Maybe you missed what I said.

Your code did work fine, but only for one window, not 3. We have 3 windows that the user may choose to have open at the same time. That is why I needed to make a change. I did say that I am a novice and what seems obvious to you is extremely difficult for me. Not only did I NOT ignore you, I also took the advice from the other person and changed 'name' to theName. I must have something wrong, but for the life of me, I can't find it.

  1. <SCRIPT>
  2. <!--
  3. 	// create a custom window
  4.     function openWindow(url, wnd)

  7. 	theName = wnd;
  8.  
  9.     if (!theName || theName.closed)
  10.     {
  11.     var windowHeight,windowWidth,windowTop,windowLeft
  12.     windowHeight = screen.availHeight;
  13.     windowWidth = screen.availWidth;

So maybe next time you should place the entire requirement instead of letting us guess whether you want 2 or 3 windows....

JavaScript / DHTML / AJAX Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. <html>
  2. <head>
  3.     <script>
  4.     var wnd = new Array();
  5.  
  6.     function openit(id)
  7.     {
  8.         if(!wnd[id] || wnd[id].closed)
  9.             wnd[id] = window.open("http://www.google.com");    
  10.         else
  11.             wnd[id].focus();
  12.     }
  13.     </script>
  14. </head>
  15. <body>
  16.     <form>
  17.         <input type="button" value="Open1" onclick="openit(0);" /><br/>
  18.         <input type="button" value="Open2" onclick="openit(1);" /><br/>
  19.         <input type="button" value="Open3" onclick="openit(2);" /><br/>
  20.     </form>
  21. </body>
  22. </html>

I want to thank you, albeit you were not very friendly, you did continue to help me through creating a successful script. I finally narrowed down the problem to the code regarding the varible for the window attributes (see earlier samples). You did not include that in your second working sample. Normally that code works fine, but not with the code you created. Thanks again!

  1. <script>
  2.     var wnd = new Array();
  3.  
  4.     function openWindow(url,id)
  5.     {
  6.     if(!wnd[id] || wnd[id].closed)
  7.  
  8.     wnd[id] = window.open(url,"","width=screen.availWidth,height=screen.availHeight,resizable=1,scrollbars=0,menubar=0,toolbar=0,directories=0,location=0,status=1,left=0,top=0,ScreenX=0,ScreenY=0");
  9.  
  10.     else
  11.  
  12.     wnd[id].focus();
  13.     }
  14. </script>

The code you pasted above seems to be working for me. What problems do you experience?

JavaScript / DHTML / AJAX Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. <html>
  2. <head>
  3. <script>
  4.     var wnd = new Array();
  5.     function openWindow(url,id)
  6.     {
  7.         if(!wnd[id] || wnd[id].closed)
  8.             wnd[id] = window.open(url,"" + id, "width=" + screen.availWidth + 
  9.             ",height=" + screen.availHeight +
  10.             ",resizable=1,scrollbars=0,menubar=0,toolbar=0,directories=0," +
  11.             "location=0,status=1,left=0,top=0,ScreenX=0,ScreenY=0");
  12.         else
  13.             wnd[id].focus();
  14.     }
  15. </script>
  16. </head>
  17. <body>
  18.     <input type="button" value="Button1" onclick="openWindow('http://www.google.com', 1);" />
  19.     <input type="button" value="Button2" onclick="openWindow('http://www.google.com', 2);" />
  20.     <input type="button" value="Button3" onclick="openWindow('http://www.google.com', 3);" />
  21. </body>
  22. </html>

No problem at all. Yes, it works very well. I was simply thanking you and informing you of our success with the code.
