Open a New Browser Window with VBScript
Gary
have an HTML form and I want to open a new browser window. When I click a
button I call some VBScript and inside that VBScript I want to open a new
browser window. I thought that using window.open would work but I can't seem
tot get it to. Is there some magic I need to open a new window using
VBScript?
Thanks

VBScript only works in IE browsers.
What have you developed so far -- just the basics, please.
What is the file extension -- .htm, .html, .hta, .vbs, or ???

Hi, Gary

asp page in a seperate window. That's it's. I thought I could use
window.open but I can't seem to get it to work.

I don't have an asp page to test it on but this should work:
Dim ws
Set ws = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
ws.Exec("c:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe http://www...asp")

Will one of these work for you?
<html>
<head>
<title>newWindows.htm</title>

<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
function js() {
window.open("http://www.google.com/index.html","win","");
}
</script>
<script type="text/vbscript">
Sub vbs()
window.open "http://www.google.com/index.html","win",""
End Sub
</script>
<form action="http://www.google.com/index.html" target="_blank">
<input type="submit" value="New Window 1">
<input type="button" value="New Window 2" onclick="js()">
<input type="button" value="New Window 3" onclick="vbs()">
</form>
</body>

Hopefully McKirahan's script works for you.
