Good question... I dunno what is the answer to that question. I'll do some research and get back to you if I bump into an answer. You should email the people at iPage as they probably can answer it..

Thanx 4 the quick response... i'm goin 2 search for window.open right now.. but I also hate pop ups... I was really interested in doing # 2... any more help would be greatly appreciated..

U dont think it's possible without opening another window..

I think..

Thanx... that can come in handy sometime..but i'm really lookin for is " is there a way 2 make a link unclickable until another link is clicked? ".

Thanx 4 your help tho.....

Yeah, I saw that post in serverside..

I'm not really sure how to do that with links (i think I could with buttons), sorry..

Here we go; I've tried to make this as user friendly and simple as possible, let me know what you think.

EDIT.

/EDIT.

There you go.

I just spent the last hour writing and perfecting this, if a mod would be gracious enough to recheck my code for browser compatability and whatnot, i'd appreciate it.....

Oh great, and after I just spent the last hour and a half writing that niffy script.

( soory, I kept getting distracted by tv and dragon ball / gt ).

You and everyone else should give my window.open function a try if you ever need it....

Additionally, there is a way to make a link unclickable until another link is clicked:..

Ucm, i'll put your code on my iPage site (and give you credit, of course) for your efforts..

Its on there if you go to.

Www.morrowasted.com.

And go to scripts.

Look, I made a scripts page just for you! and I added a couple more so it doesnt look dumb with only one..

Hehe can you say overkill ucm..

But good job ucm, I will add it also to my site..

Edit: actually ucm, nobody will know how to use that. you need to give an example. you can't just insert that example you gave an expect it to work...

Yeah, I was wondering about that, but then again, I cant code JS very well!..

The way I have the function set up is so that you can assign the window to a javascript variable. This way, you can use that variable to access the window and it's contents ( as long as the contents are from you and your site, that is )....

Another nifty trick is that by putting.

Window..

Before your variable name for your new window. This will allow you to access that window from anywhere in your page..

I'll give several examples:.

Let's say you want a single link to open 3x windows at specific locations on the screen ( I assume your screen is 800x600 ) to set up some sort of control panel interface:.

NEW! in version 1.20:.

UPDATE: fixed location positioning problem.

ADDED:: max and avail options for the size string.

I built in a max and avail option for the size of the new window that if specified will fill the screen with that width and/or height specified for the width/height string:.

The way this worx is simple... if you want the height of the window to be the height of the screen then for that part of the size string, put:.

Max.

OR.

Avail.

And vice-versa for the width.

Here are several examples:..

Yeah, I know it's a little overkill; but I figured why not go all the way on simplifying it as much as possible while providing maximum options... lol!.

Now if you EVER need to open a window oncw or more than once, there's a seemingly standardized format. plus, the function will take care of as much of the work for you as it can, simplifying your tasks ( yeah, that sounds like what I was thinking, lol ).

Man, I Reallllly need to build a iPage website for storing stuff like this, including version historys.

Course, then i'd need a loooot of time ( which I dont have ) to work on it and keep it up to date :-/..

Thanks ucm, you know that is what my iPage site is for. you can add all your scripts to it if you want..

One thing for cross-browser is you need a href="#" to it. cause nobody will understand that it is a link...

WOW...A NEWBIE STARTED ALL THIS?!?!... LOL.

Anyways, thank you so much 4 the script...really need it.... I think I understand wha you did..but I was wondering..how would I add more links.. like they would have to click 3 b4 the main 1?..

Ummm.. that doesn't work 4 me.... lol.. do I need sumthin else?..

Lol! sorry, I made a typo, use this:.

The prob was that on the first link, I had "==" which in javascript is a comparative operator, it needed to be a single "="....

To modify it for 3x links, etc, you could use:.

The pattern should be easy to mimic, let me know if you need any modifications to it..

Thanx man... appreciate it... but..how do I set up wha link1 is, link2 is, link3 is.... get me...the links they have 2 press b4 pressing the main one.....

Any1?... sorry i'm so persistent but I really need this....

<a id="link1" onclick="window.hasLinkOneBeenClicked1=true;">THIS is link1, you MUST click THIS link before you can click link4</a>.

<br>.

<a id="link2" onclick="window.hasLinkOneBeenClicked2=true;">THIS is link2, you MUST click THIS link before you can click link4</a>.

<br>.

<a id="link3" onclick="window.hasLinkOneBeenClicked3=true;">THIS is link3, you MUST click THIS link before you can click link4</a>.

<br>.

//////main link. the others have to be clicked first for this one to be clickable ///////////.

<a id="link4" onclick="if(window.hasLinkOneBeenClicked1==true && window.hasLinkOneBeenClicked2==true && window.hasLinkOneBeenClicked3==true){window.location='http://www.hotmail.com';}">THIS is link4, you MUST click on link1 before you can click on THIS one</a>.

All it takes is to read a little..

U don't get what I mean....

When I post up what you give me.. I get no links whats so ever....

You didn't say that. you just said you can't make it work. wha tyou need is to add these to all of them..

Href="#".

As mozilla and NS don't understand it without it..

<a id="link1".

Href="#".

Onclick="window.hasLinkOneBeenClicked1=true;">..

Wow..i felt stupid... ok thanx... but now it duzn't work... da script it self.....

Edit:.

Changed the link to a function so that the window "in this thread" wouldn't create this huge horizontal scrollbar....

/edit.

Here you go, the entire script and links re-written togeather for full functionality ( ignore all past scripts as this one tests perfectly.

):.

What I did was change the last link so that it would not take you anywhere unless all 3x of the other links are clicked... I also put the 1000mics url in the proper place in the function....

That should take care of it for ya..
