Javascript Child Window

[Alan Greig]

Hi All,

I am trying to set up a child window that displays a web cam view. I
have successfuly created the page and everything works fine except if
I click on a hyperlink and my webcam page is the only one open, I lose
the webcam page with the contents being replaced by the page of the
clicked hyperlink.

Is there anyway I can stop the child page from ever being modified in
that clicking on a hyperlink will by default open a new browser
window.

Thanks.

Alan

<a href="whatever.html" target='_blank'>whatever</a>

opens a new window. An onlick handler within the tag that opens the link
in another window if it can, should return false it succeeds or true if
it does not.
