Opening a new window after computations and validations

Question

Hi all
I want to open a new popUp window after a submit button is clicked but this window should open only after all the validations assosiated with this button are executed. Please note that, I want to open this window before the process associated with this button can fire
Any thoughts??

Heres what I did
I created a process called status bar to execute on submit and after computatuions and validations. This process contained the javascript to launch my new popup. This is the first process in after submit catagory. Logically it is supposed to execute before any other process but the problem is ...
The status bar process is not executing on submit after computations and validations.I tried changing its process point to before computations and validatuions. No problems on before computations and validations if I have some validations error on that page. But if everything is validated in this case as well, We don't get the status window.
If this is any help, here r the contents of the process in question :
htp.p('<script language=javascript>');
htp.p('function statusbar(page)');
htp.p('{');
htp.p('url = "http://flexfareserver:7777/pls/apex/f?p=101:" + page + ":&APP_SESSION.";');
htp.p('win = window.open(url,"","Scrollbars=0,resizable=0,width=600,height=500");');
htp.p('}');
htp.p('statusbar(4)');
htp.p('</script>');
rout(11);
end
Notice the last statement in the process. This is a call to an external procedure called rout. This executes fine but just the htp.p is giving me problem, only in the particular case I spotted out.
Please help
