Alright, IE is really makin’ me mad here. This script works perfectly in Mozilla Firefox, but does not work at all in IE.

Here is the code on the button:

```auto

<input type=button value="Launch Image" onClick="openWin('http://www.mysite.com/img_database/window.php?img=<? echo $_GET['img']?>');">

```

Here is the openWin function:

```auto

function openWin(url){
		window.open(url,'Triplebros - Image Download','toolbar=0,menubar=0,status=0,resize=0,dependent=1,location=0,scrollbars=0,height=650,width=800,left=40,top=40')
	}

```

The openWin function was not always its own function, it also didn’t work when i had the window.open(…) on the button with an onClick.

Any help on this would be fantastic, thanks.
