Thank you Cyanide. I tried that and it didn't help
either. Is there something wrong with the way I'm
opening this popup in the first place? I go

<a href="judges.php3" target="judgesPopupWin"
onClick=" popupWindow('judges',340,275)">Judge</a>

Is that not a good way to do it?

FWIW, it's a scheduling application for court
interpreters and one of the attributes of an event is
the judge. So there's a 'judge' select list (whose
options are pulled from a MySQL database) and I want
the "label," i.e the text that identifies the
selection menu, to be linked to a PHP script that lets
the user insert/update rows in my judges table. I want
that script to pop up in a popup window.

Thanks also to Peter-Paul K. for your comments. I
think it must be an Explorerism, but I wouldn't think
Microsoft automatically updates my Explorer. I run an
old version and wouldn't think they would care to
bother.
