This goes between the <head> tags, you can use multiple per page if you use a different function names.
function ty10wh98() {
win = window.open("http://url/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi?db=default&uid=$db_uid&whatever=1", "WIN", "status=no,toolbar=yes,scrollbars=yes,location=no,menu=no,width=450,height=350");
}
</SCRIPT>Your hyperlink...
Code:
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> function ty10wh98() {
win = window.open("http://url/cgi-bin/dbman/db.cgi?db=default&uid=$db_uid&whatever=1", "WIN", "status=no,toolbar=yes,scrollbars=yes,location=no,menu=no,width=450,height=350");
}
</SCRIPT>
Code:
<A HREF="#" onclick="ty10wh98();"><img src="http://URL/to/your/image.gif" border="0" width="150" height="35" alt="Click here"></a>

You don't say what kind of error you're getting, so I'll presume it's a JavaScript one. Try making it file_upload_newhome=1.
A "safer" way of doing it is like this:
<a href="/cgi-bin/saleowner/db.cgi?db=king&uid=$db_uid&file_upload_newhome=1"
target="_new"
onClick="window.open('/cgi-bin/saleowner/db.cgi?db=king&uid=$db_uid&file_upload_newhome=1',
'upload_win',
'status=0,toolbar=1,scrollbars=1,location=1,menu=0,width=450,height=350');
return false">
The difference is, if the user has a JavaScript-enabled browser, and they have it turned on, it works normally and "return false" ensures that the script doesn't return to the html page and follow the href tag. However, if they have an old browser, or JavaScript turned off, you still get your new window, although you have no control over its attributes.

Ok..thanks....
my problem is however...once clicked and the window opens...
I always get a "Error: Unknown Action
The database program received a command that it did not understand.
But the window opens just fine....

The problem probably has to do with the file upload mod. I regret ever starting to work with it and I definitely regret posting it to the forum. I thought I knew more than I did, but I know better now.

Well, you have to let db.cgi know about the new subroutine. Add this in the sub main in db.cgi whrere dbman directs traffic more or less. Set the permissions for this routine where it says $per_view. Make sure in your URL you have &file_upload_newhome=1 instead of file_upload_newhome.
Hope this helps.
Also note... Hidden fields are not passed to new windows in the AOL browser. You have to include all fields in the FORM ACTION if you want them to work in this fashion, in the AOL browser.

Code:
elsif ($in{file_upload_newhome'}) { if ($per_view) { &file_upload_newhome; } else { &html_unauth; } }Also note... Hidden fields are not passed to new windows in the AOL browser. You have to include all fields in the FORM ACTION if you want them to work in this fashion, in the AOL browser.
