UBB.Developers Forums Community Development Programming HTML, CSS, and JavaScript javascript pop-up and parent pages

I am doing some work on the ubb im's and am trying to get a link on the resulting pop-up to either:
1. open the pm inbox in the browser window that opened the pop-up (and auto-close the pop-up)
or:
2. open a new full-size browser window to the pm inbox and auto-close the pop-up

Right now I have a link on the icon1.gif that opens the pm inbox, but it opens right in that small pop-up... target="_parent" and target="_blank" doesn't do anything.


I would also like the javascript that closes pop-ups when clicked on (to add to the text on the pop-up that says the im was sent successfully, please close this window).

Thanks for any help...

em8 is right. To make the main window a target, you need a javascript on the main page to name it:

then, in the link (in the popup) just make the target "ubbdevmain".

Closing a popup is really easy:
