Ive created a popup window to that now allows me to do a little bug reporting, the problem is that the page works in ie - with all of its functions - popping up - grabbing the referer - saying thankyou etc.. But only in firefox.
If you try the same thing in IE it comes up with a lovely error and i just cant see where the problem lies...
The link: - The window pops up fine in ff & ie
<a href="javascript:correction();">report the problem</a>
javascript code: - just a simple popup
function correction() {
day = new Date();
id = day.getTime();
eval("page" + id + " = window.open('/tools/correction.aspx', '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=1,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=460,height=400');");
}
The popups Form:
<div id="correctionComplete" runat="server"> <p>Thank you for reporting a problem with this page, we will make sure that someone takes a look at it as soon as posible. Please remember that we cannot reply to submissions form this form only heed their advice.</p> <p id="right"><input type="button" value="Close This Window" onclick="javascript:window.close();" /></p> </div> <form id="correctionForm" runat="server"> <p>Your comments can help make our site better for everyone.

SmtpMail.Send(mail)
End If
End If
End If
End Sub
End Class
This is Really confusing me - all i can think is that maybe ie isnt passign the referer through... but i simply dont understand how this can be if it is a standard header.....
I would apriciate ANY help with this that people can give me.....
