I'm making a script that moves windows around like the boxes on the Minority Report site (http://www.fox.co.uk/minorityreport/). I've got another script that does one window, and i'm modding it to work like those boxes. Only when i start it off, the box just wanders off down the screen untill it disappears and is never heard from again. :confused:

This is the page:

<html>
<head>
<script>
function xopen(wins,speed,config,spacing){
if (config == ""){
document.status="!You have not set a config number!";
}
if (config == "1"){
var left=(window.screen.availWidth / 2)-(99/2);
var top=(window.screen.availHeight / 2)-(99/2);
if (wins >= 1){
var winone = window.open("","","left="+left+", top="+top+", width=99, height=99, scrollbars=no, status=no, resizable=no");
}
if (wins >= 2){
var wintwo = window.open("","","left="+left+", top="+top+", width=99, height=99, scrollbars=no, status=no, resizable=no");
}
if (wins >= 3){
var winthr = window.open("","","left="+left+", top="+top+", width=99, height=99, scrollbars=no, status=no, resizable=no");
}
if (wins > 3){
document.status="!Only 3 windows allowed!";
}
winone.focus();
var widthspeed=speed
var heightspeed=speed/1.333333
if (wins >= 3){
var onego = 99+spacing
var twogo = 99
var thrgo = 99+spacing
}
if (wins == 2){
var onego = 99+(spacing/2)
var twogo = 99-(spacing/2)
}
if (wins == 1){
var onego = 99
}
var goiup = 0
for (goiup; goiup <= onego; goiup += heightspeed)
{
winone.moveTo((window.screen.availWidth/2)-(99/2), ((window.screen.availHeight/2)+goiup))
goiup += heightspeed
}
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" onClick="xopen('3','1','1','50')">
</body>
</html>

PLEASSE HELP.
I'm going insane with this thing... (*Thinks*)
*More insane.

most of what i did here, is reorganize your code, but i did make a few changes here and there, too. it seems to be working fine.

<html>
<head>
<script>
function xopen(wins,speed,config,spacing) {
if (config == "") {
alert("¡You have not set a config number!");
return;
}
if (wins > 3) {
alert("!Only 3 windows allowed!");
return;
}

if (config == "1") {
var left = (window.screen.availWidth / 2) - (99/2);
var top = (window.screen.availHeight / 2) - (99/2);
var winds = [];
for ( var i = 0; i < wins; i++) {
winds[i] = window.open("","","left="+left+", top="+top+", width=99, height=99, scrollbars=no, status=no, resizable=no");
}
winds[1].focus();
var widthspeed = speed;
var heightspeed = speed/1.333333;
var onego, twogo, thrgo;

switch(wins) {
case 3:
onego = 99 + spacing;
twogo = 99;
thrgo = 99 + spacing;
break;
case 2:
onego = 99 + (spacing/2);
twogo = 99 - (spacing/2);
break;
case 1:
onego = 99;
break;
}
for ( var goiup = 0; goiup <= onego; goiup += heightspeed) {
winds[1].moveTo((window.screen.availWidth/2)-(99/2), ((window.screen.availHeight/2)+goiup));
}
}
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input type="button" onClick="xopen(3,1,1,50);">
</body>
</html>
