I have a fairly simple page that displays an image in a pop-up window. The onLoad event simply takes the querystring, populates an image tag with that value, then resizes the image and window to match.
For some reason, this only works for me when the page is reloaded/refreshed. Or, once the image has been displayed once, it will work from then on, even though caching is turned off. But any time an image is viewed the first time, the page comes up blank with no errors thrown.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

<body onload="getImage();">
<img src="images/spacer.gif" id="dynamicImage" alt="Image Zoom" width="1" height="1" />

The page is called using the following function:
function imageZoom(imageName)
{
window.open('ImageZoom.htm?' + imageName + '','imageZoom','width=400,height=400,menubar=no,toobar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes');
}
