Can I launch new browser window from redirect tag?

[Fred]

Is it possible to get a new browser window to be launched from a redirect tag? I have one javascript popup for my AutoFollowup script by Jason Silvers.

<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="http://www.cyberserious.com/download.htm">

What I would like to accomplish is for this page to load in a new browser window instead of the same window.

using ..."http://www.cyberserious.com/download.htm" target="new"> doesn't work. The browser simply ignores this command and loads to the same window.

In your form tag:

<form .......... target="_blank">

[Fred]

target="_blank"> didn't work. It still loads to the same popup window.

There must be something else wrong with your code then. Putting target="_blank" inside your form tag will return the results into a new window.

Post your form code.

ok, instead of putting target blank in that hidden field take it right out of their and put it in the actual <form> tag, like this:

<form action="http://www.cyberserious.com/cgi-bin/auto_followup.pl" method="post" align="left" target="_blank">

[Fred]

Redhead,
I just tried your suggestion and it works!

Thank you,
Fred

I could have sworn that's what I said earlier.

[Fred]

Yes now that I realize it, that's what you said earlier. I was confused by

"<form .......... target="_blank">"

<form action="http://www.cyberserious.com/cgi-bin/auto_followup.pl" method="post" align="left" target="_blank">

I was putting it in the wrong place earlier.

Spookster,
What is the piece of html code that automatically clears out the form fields on a page, such a name & email address, immediately after the visitor has filled them in then clicks SUBMIT?

javascript can only make that happen before the form has been sent, 'coz after its been sent your on a differant page... and if you made them blank before it sends the form, there will be no data in the form...

[Fred]

I guess then, it's not a problem that the visitor's information remains in the boxes. I figured some people might think their submission didn't go through, if they still see their name and email in the boxes, and might resubmit by mistake.

Thank you,
Fred
