VisualForce and Javascript
Something strange happens, when I use the IE browser:
After I call this VF page in IE7 and click on the button "Konten Import" a new window opens up, but the PopUp window switch always behind the main page. The main page seem to reload itself.
The symptom is:
I click on <apex:CommandButton value="Konten Import" onclick="openpopup()" />
<script type="text/javascript">
function openpopup()
{
var KontenWindow = window.open('{!URLFOR($page.KontenImport)}','Konten','height=200,width=385,status=yes,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes');
setTimeout("openpopup()",100);
KontenWindow.focus();
}
</script>
This behavior happens only on VF Page in IE Browser.
Thanks

Hi Steve,
It's because you're using a command button to generate the onclick handler, which is the same as a 'submit' button on a regular html page, so despite trapping the click, the button still goes off and submits the form.
Try using a 'non-submit' button - use the 'btn' class if you want it to look like a SF button.
<input type="button" value="Konten Import" onclick="openpopup()" class="btn" />
I'm at a bit of a loss as to why you're using 'setTimeout("openpopup()",100);' in your 'openpopup' function. This will cause a recursive loop which will open window after window. Is this your intention?
