Javascript in windows xp

Question

hi gurus,
i am using a simple javascript to validate a form present in the same html file.
the following is the code present in javascrip
<script language="javascript">
     function CheckAns1(){
newwindow=window.open("PreTestAnswer.html","PreTest","width=400,height=400,toolbar=1,location=1,directories=1,status=1,menuBar=1,scrollBars=1,resizable=1");
           newdocument=newwindow.document;
           newdocument.write("<center><h3>ANSWER FOR THE PRETEST</h3></center>");
           newdocument.write("<table border=1>");
       newdocument.write("</table>");
           newdocument.close();
  }my problem is in window.open() only in windows XP
when i run the same code in win2000, it is working fine.
the error that is giving in xp is "PreTestAnswer.html file not found do u need to debug".
could u resolve my problem..
very urgent..

Answer 1

1) java is not javascript. This is a java forum. Sun does not have javascript forums because javascript is a different language and unrelated to java. I would guess that most people who know java do not know javascript.
2) If you open an html file in a pop up window, e.g.:
PreTestAnswer.html
and then write to the popup, e.g.:
newdocument.write(.....);
the popup will be erased first, and therefore opening PreTestAnswer.html in the popup is an exercise in futility.
3) On your windowsXP machine, your file PreTestAnswer.html is not in the same directory as whatever html page is displayed in the main window.
