I have a form in my main page. When I click the submit button, it will open a pop-up window but the variables in my form are not being passed.  
I used this code in the form tag. But it doesnt work.

```php
<form... ...action="javascript:open_window('myphpfile.php','sb',640,480)">

```

Any ideas?!!
