Hi,

I am using the 'Form - confirmation Page' to redirect visitors to our online
shop - after completing an info form. Can I get this confirmation [shop]
page to open in a new browser window?
 
Why not simply open the form page in a new window. Shop would then be the
confirmation page. Once they are done here they return to where the started
when they close the window.

Thanks Mike,
That would be a good solution - however the Form page is opened via a link
on a 'All Web Menus' generated moving navigation menu - which does not appear
to allow that type of customization.

Thats why I thought FP would allow me to edit the confirmation page to open
in new window. [Using FP 2002]

Haven't used AllWeb in a while, but seems I remember new window as a choice
for the link.

As an alternative, if you are using a custom confirmation page, you might
use a redirect opening in a new window, after a set number of seconds along
with a notation that the page will be redirected to the shop page momentarily.

<script language="JavaScript"><!--
setTimeout("top.location.href = 'http://www.somewhere.com/'",5000);
//--></script>

This one is set for 5 seconds. Not being a JS wiz, I am not sure if this
will work with a relative URL. Place this script in the <Head> area of the
confirmation page.

My apologies. Head not screwed on tight enough today. The script I gave you
is simply redirect. And, unfortunately, now I can't find the redirect to new
window script. Sorry. Had a CPU change a whilt back and lost a lot of scripts
I had stored.
