[FX.php List] Feel my pain. part 2

Mon Jul 9 10:19:30 MDT 2007

Feeling your pain ;-)

Here’s a suggestion for your actual question...

In the main page put something like this;

<?php // do some stuff 

$newWindow['file'] = 'fileToOpen.php';

$newWindow['name'] = 'newWindow';

$newWindow['width'] = 400;

$newWindow['height'] = 200;

include_once('open.php');

?>

For the page to be valid, the include has to be within either the <head> or
<body> of that page.

open.php contains;

<script type="text/javascript">

  var <?php echo $newWindow['name'];?> = window.open('<?php echo
$newWindow['file'];?>' ,'<?php echo $newWindow['name'];?>','width=<?php echo
$newWindow['width'];?>,height=<?php echo $newWindow['height'];?>');

</script>

You can of course use way more parameters, so that you can position the
window, determine if scroll bars are present etc etc...

Does this achieve what you were wanting...??

Cheers

Steve

I've been talking with the client--nice guy--who keeps telling me how it's
such a complex database. It's all I can do not to say, "it's a complete
mess!" But he's a nice guy, and he understands that this will take longer
just because of the difficulty of deciphering his programming, so I'm biting
my tongue. I had to explain to him (several times) that PHP doesn't rely on
scripts to do its work, and that his layouts aren't going to be displayed on
the iste, but rather HTML representations of his layouts.

So my work's cut out for me... it appears, from what I've been able to
figure out, that his database uses a bunch of convoluted scripts to do what
we would normally do with good relational design.

While I've got your attention: do you know of a way to use either
include_once() or Header() to redirect to a new page in a NEW WINDOW? 

Thanks,

Bob Patin

Bob, that definitely looks like the result of an FP6 conversion. Double ick!
