click a button to open an external window = fine  
moving this new window to a specified position using window.moveto = doesn’t work.

My favourite quote. Bugger!!

between \<head\>\</head\> tags in the html page that is to be called when you press the button I have the following code…

```auto

< **** script language="JavaScript">
win **** dow.moveTo(0, 0);
< **** /script>

```

this doesn’t seem to be working at all. Do I need some better code or just to tweek this one. My brain tells me that this SHOULD work, where am I going wrong?! For an example please go to [http://www.brakesint.co.uk](http://www.brakesint.co.uk) and click the big green BUY ONLINE button. Cheers!
