The link is calling a javascript function to open a pop-up window. For some reason the javascript for this function found in the file includes/default_javascript.js is failing to load correctly. This could be down to a corrupted file, or a modification you have made. Try reuploading the original files again and see if that solves the problem. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Borg, this is the exact same problem I'm having with my forum... as I mentioned earlier in http://forums.webwiz.net/forum_posts.asp?TID=20139 - another topic...
sdehumo, try clicking other buttons that are supposed to bring up a pop window, such as the link javascript:winOpener%28%27RTE_popup_emoticons.asp%27,%27emot%27,0,0,450,340%29 - more... for emotiocons when posting, or the 'forget password' link on the login page and see if either when pops up.
Borg, as you advised, I took off all the javaScripts that I added and disabled any pop up blockers and used 4 different PC's and two different browsers and the problem was still there. I'm using V. 8.02 MS SQL. I'm glad that I'm not the only one to have such problem. ------------- "When it gets dark enough, you can see the stars" -Charles A. Beard |

The error means that the Javascript function 'winOpener' can not be found. The Javascript function 'winOpener' is found in the file 'includes/default_javascript.js' In the file header.asp you should have the follwoing line, connecting the forum pages to the default_javascript.js file:- <script language="javascript" src="includes/default_javascript.js" type="text/javascript"></script> If you are getting the errors you mention it will be because the file 'includes/default_javascript.js' is corrupted or modified, or the header.asp file is corrupted or modified to remove the link (shown above) to this javascript file. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

That's it! This javascript was missing from the head.asp file... Things are back to normal now, thanks so much. ------------- "When it gets dark enough, you can see the stars" -Charles A. Beard |

I have added the script in includes/default_javascript.js directly in
the header.asp and now it works. Its like if it doesn link the file. Its strange because i have changed my server, from hosting to VPS, and althought it has the same FIle Sytem a lot of funcionalities in JScript doesnt work, for example FCKeditor or a calendar, could it be something about javaScript configuration in my server? Thanks in advance. |

Yep, I get the same problem.
For some reason the line in the header:
<script language="javascript" src="includes/default_javascript.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
is not loading in the script file.
At first this was missing from my revised header file but it still didn't work after I put it back in.
Now I have popup blockers all over the shop so I was using the ctrl key to override it. - And that's where the problem lay. Despite all my pop up blockers I didn't need to use the ctrl key - In fact I got an error when I used the ctrl key. Just by clicking the link alone caused the page to pop up without incident.
