actually you can just pregenerate the popup inside the page, and have the popup link to the tag inside of the iframe, here's the code i just made. [code]<script language="javascript"> function popitup2() { newwindow2=window.open('','name','height=200,width=150'); var tmp = newwindow2.document; tmp.write('<html><body><form action="website.php" method="post" target="iframe">'); tmp.write('<input type="text" size="26"><br>'); tmp.write('<input type="submit" value="iframe-it" onClick="javascript:self.close()"></form>'); tmp.write(''); tmp.write('</body></html>'); tmp.close(); }</script> <a href="javascript:popitup2()">try it</a> <iframe src="bla.html" width="100%" height="10%" name="iframe"></iframe> [/code] sadly enough, i do this with my morning coffee
