Quick question -

I have a page that uses window.open() to open a child window. In this child window there is a link that uses window.open() to open another child window.

In all of the browsers (IE,Firefox,Opera), I can't get it to open the child's child (grandchild ) window. It just opens in the same window, which wouldn't be a problem but for the fact that the grandchild communicates with the child.

Maybe this should be in the genealogy forum.

Id say you're naming the window the same..

window.open(url, windowname, properties).

If windowname is the same in both links, then thats what would cause it..
