Is there a way using javascript to open a popup that does not have the parent child relationship.
This is my problem. I have a technician ticketing system. The techs get a list of all of the tickets that are assigned to them. The tech can click on any of the tickets to view detail of that ticket or make comments via a javascript popup. But since the popup is a child of the opening window, it won't destroy the session.
Currently, I have a popup setup to destroy the session with the onUnload. This is not bulletproof though. The users will sometimes open up other tickets and have data from the previous ticket. I tried to make an exit button that destroys the session and then closes the window, but some ppl use the 'x' to close the window.
So, I am kinda looking for a way to get a popup that has no relation to the opener. I could use a target="_blank" in a regular <a> tag but then I would have the address bar and back buttons and what not.
Any suggestions are appreciated.
