Re: New window for a CGI

The trick isn't to have the cgi send the answer to the small window, its to
call the cgi inside the pop up

<script language="javascript">
<!--
var cgi_call = "/path/to/script.cgi?some_var=" + escape(some_var);
var mypop = window.open(cgi_call,"pop up", ...
// -->
</script>
