Answer 2

A:

Not 100% sure what you problem is without being able to see your code but the following worked for me in Safari 4:

windowname:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"&gt;

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
    <title>untitled</title>

</head>

<body onload="window.name='windowname'">
<a href="#" onclick="window.open('popup.html')">Open</a>

</body>
</html>

popup:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd"&gt;

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
    <title>untitled</title>

</head>

<body>
<a href="http://google.com" target="windowname">test</a>
</body>
</html>

Thanks for the time - this will work for me as a first click, can you add another link to the popup and change the opener a second time? Again, it works fine locally, but not on a server...

Answer 3

A:

No resolution for this was ever found, I had to go with a method that didn't use pop-up windows due to this.

thanks for the effort.
