[resolved] Pop-Up Window Auto Minimizing?

I have a pop-up within my script, but whenever it is activated, it is automatically minimized before user input, which is not the desired action. In the Dock .ini, it doesn't seem to matter what parameter is associated with:

NoIEPopupMenu=0

Any ideas on why this would happen? I do not experience this behavior running the same script in PhpED or under Apache/PHP, and this is an integral part of my script.

Thanks,

Lee

Could you please create a short sample and send it to NuSphere Support?

no, it does not get minimized. It appears below the main window in Z-order.
To get it active you may want to add .focus() call like below

var v = window.open(blahblahblah);
v.focus();

and btw, to avoid opening multiple popups you may want to use target name in window.open() method and do not forget to add semicolon after it.

Ah...that makes sense. It works properly in all environments except for Dock, where it works as a pop-under. I'll give your solutions a try.

Thanks,

I'd recommend you to use IE dialogs instead of window.open.

A Windows dialog box is not appropriate for I'm doing. Though the example I sent you simply had a line of text, the pop-up I present to my user has multiple list boxes with multiple options. After the options are selected, code is executed within the pop-up.

Why don't you check window.showModalDialog() and window.showModelessDialog(). They are a bit more flexible and not any harder than window.open().
See MSDN for further details.
