Hi, how do you make a popup window in php? i want it to open user.php?user=$row[username] which is 500 by 500. I've tried using javascript to do it, but it wont work.
Thanks

php is serverside. that means that everything takes place on the server. which means, you can't use php to open windows on a clients machine

You have to use javascript, unless you want to make some dhtml windows, but I don't think you are ready for that.
popup is a javascript alert.
you can write a javascript function to the browser with PHP.

<script language=javascript>
<?
$saysomething="something to say";
echo "alert('$saysomething')";
?>
</script>
