the flow is: a php page calls an ajax function that displays a list of user in a table without refreshing the pages. in this table, i put a delete and edit link. I have no problem with the delete link however, i'm stuck at the edit link.
what I'm trying to do is, when a user click edit link, there will appear a popup window, there, they can update the details of the user, but it appears that my popup window is not appearing.
the javascript function is:
<script type="text/javascript">
function newWindow(url) {
var x,y;
x = screen.width-35;
y = screen.height-30;
var win = window.open(url,'glossaryWindow','toolbar=no,directories=no,width=500,height=500'+
'screenX=0,screenY=0,top=0,left=0,location=no,status=no,scrollbars=no,resize=yes,menubar=no');
}
i put the function at the top of the page.
this is the php code to call java function in html tag
echo "<td>" . '<a href="javascript: newWindow("/test/HTMLPages/popup_update_user.html")">edit</a>' . "</td>";
is it possible??
i checked it its my URL that wrong, but that is not the problem. the popup does not appear at all. i need advise on this matter.
UPDATE:
this is the correct code for calling javascript in tag within php:
<?php
echo "<td>" . "<a href=\"#\" onclick=\"newWindow('popup_update_user.html')\">edit</a>". "</td>"; ?>
:D
