i own and operate a myspace [bleep] train
i recently coded a page to auto open the post bulletin window while the riders control panel is opened

when most people view the page though, it says the popup blocker has blacked the window being popped up
i dont want my users thinking my site ocntains trojans or viruses, so they will come back and re-use it

any suggestions?

this is the code im currently using to open the window

<body onload=window.open('bulletin.php');return
true;>

If it is a MySpace page, MySpace does not allow JavaScript which the onLoad event is. It was either filtered out or thoroughly messed up when saved to Profile.

Sorry about that. Didn't check link or notice it. Typing "myspace" together always triggers the MySapce site in my mind.

Looked at your page and I see a totally non-standard HTML page. I realize you use PHP, but the HTML structure for the page MUST adhere to HTML 4.01 Coding standards or you will cause all kinds of browser problems. Most will be in Quirks Mode and have no idea how to parse your page and thus fall back on the browser developer's idea of what your page should look like. Therefore, any script events may really trip up other people trying to view your site.

HTML Errors that NEED to be corrected. Couple of CSS Errors.

Might want to look into "New Window OnLoad" and see if that would work for you better than what you have.

The links I gave are to the HTML/CSS errors and will have to be corrected on the PHP files. It is NOT proper coding for a web page. The PHP I do not have access to that writes the HTML/CSS for your pages.
