Keep a Popup window open

[Guest]

I created a popup window using createPopup method. Is there anyway to keep
the popup open until the user clicks a button within the popup to close the
popup window. Right now the popup window will close if I click outside the
popup window. I do not want that to happen until the user clicks a button in
the popup window.

thanks....

I think you are looking for a Modal window functionality. For IE, you
need to use showModalDialog and for other browsers, you can use
window.open with parameter model=yes to open a modal window. This will
compell the user to close the window to access the parent window. Hope
this helps.

Thanks for the reply but I would want to use that same functionality in the
createPopup method. I do not want to create a modal form... I want to use the
Popupwindow.

thanks again.

If anyone knows if this can be done please let me know...

Curt is right. As far as I know, it cannot be done with createPopup
method. You need to use modal dialogs to accomplish your requirement.
