onclick

[slimjim]

How can i get it so that if I click on a link, it opens up a new window, but also the page that I clicked the link on also opens a new page..

Now I know I can do the onclick event and a window can popup, but to make the main window change also I cant figure out.

<INPUT TYPE="image" src="images/signup.gif" onclick="window.open('newsletter.php?<? echo $id;?>','mywindow','width=400,height=400')" name="submit">

I'm not sure you can do this directly in javascript.

I've seen it done indirectly, where the link just opens a new window, but javascript in that window then loads new content into the original window. Find a site that does what you like and study the mechanism used.

Alternatively, ask in a javascript forum.

Have you tried putting both (new link location and the onClick event) into an <a> tag? it might work:

<a href="new_page.php" onClick="window.open('newsletter.php?<?php  echo $id; ?>','mywindow','width=400,height=400')"><img src="images/signup.gif"></a>
