Question about a form

[vinnier]

First of all, HELLO

 

I know it's html basics but I've been working on the website for the last 48h with no break and I'm not seeing straight.

 

I've set up a new website using Wordpress, which uses feedburner for subscription. (let me just say that I've tried wp forum but it doesn't look like I will get any help there anytime soon)

 

The basic form came in with the template only needed adjusting to the account etc.

Once I've done it, I've noticed a problem; once I submit the form I get the feedburner confirmation window as a pop-up and the same starts to open in the main window.

Pure madness. I only want the pop-up window, so I've been trying to adjust the script, and I'm stuck as the feedburner confirmation loads always in the main window.

For now I'm stuck with this:

<input type="hidden" value="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement" onsubmit="window.open('http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement', 'scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=520')">

 

And there is no pop up at all right now, it only loads in the main window.

 

For reference, here is the whole bit of the form code:

<form action="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement" method="post" class="subscribe">
<fieldset>
<input type="text" class="feedinput" value="Your email address ..." name="email" />
<input type="submit" class="feedsubmit" value="Join" />
<input type="hidden" value="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement" onsubmit="window.open('http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement', 'scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=520')">
<input type="hidden" value="<?php echo $blog_title; ?>" name="title"/>
<input type="hidden" name="loc" value="<?php echo $location; ?>"/>
</fieldset>
</form>

 

Summarising, I want the form submission to only open a pop up that will display the feedburner page, and the main window to stay the same.

 

Please help me out here, as I feel so stupid right now...

you cannot have a onsubmit on a hidden field it should be on the form tag, also you should try target="_new" in the form tag that will open it in a new window

Thanks. I'm kinda back where I started... :/ With this;

<form action="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement" onsubmit="window.open('http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement', 'scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=520')" method="post" class="subscribe target="_new"">
<fieldset>
<input type="text" class="feedinput" value="Your email address ..." name="email" />
<input type="submit" class="feedsubmit" value="Join" />
<input type="hidden" value="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement"/>
<input type="hidden" value="<?php echo $blog_title; ?>" name="title"/>
<input type="hidden" name="loc" value="<?php echo $location; ?>"/>
</fieldset>
</form>

 

I'm getting a new window like i want but the content is also loading in the main window 

 

How do I stop that from happening?

 

 

 

EDIT:

 

Tried removing the hidden value;

	<form action="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement" onsubmit="window.open('http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=WoRecordsManagement', 'scrollbars=yes,width=550,height=520')" method="post" class="subscribe target="_new"">
<fieldset>
<input type="text" class="feedinput" value="Your email address ..." name="email" />
<input type="submit" class="feedsubmit" value="Join" />

<input type="hidden" value="<?php echo $blog_title; ?>" name="title"/>
<input type="hidden" name="loc" value="<?php echo $location; ?>"/>
</fieldset>
</form>

 

No change... :/
