It opens new window when it shouldn`t

[Michal Zubkowicz]

Why when i`m clicking on a link:
<a href='javascript:document.form_name.texbox1.value="sss"'>ssS</a>
It writes data to a form AND opens new window with adress like in link.
Anybody can help ?

In general, and certainly not unless you undertand the implications:
Don't use the javascript: pseudo-protocol.
Don't use links when you're not linking to an URL.

<a href="sorry.html" onclick="document.form_name.texbox1.value='sss';return
false">ssS</a>

Where sorry.html is a page apologizing to people who don't have scripting
enabled.

Try

<a href="" onclick='document.form_name.texbox1.value="sss";return
false;'>ssS</a>
