How to keep window on top

[john20]

Hi All,

Can you please tell me how can I keep newly opened window on top if the user click on the other windows as well then also newly opened windows should saty on top.

I am opening new windows using window.open methode of java script.

Any help really appriciated.

Thanks

Pretty sure that's impossible, since it's just a new browser window and you don't have that much control over it, but if you used something like a light box instead of opening a new window I think you could achieve a similar result.

Here's a good article with example so you can see what I mean:

The closest you can get to a modal window is below:

<script type="text/javascript">
	function funModalWindow()
	{
		if (window.showModalDialog) {
			window.showModalDialog("http://www.google.co.uk/","name","dialogWidth:255px;dialogHeight:250px");
		} else {
			window.open('http://www.google.co.uk/','name','height=255,width=250,toolbar=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no ,modal=yes');
		}
	}
</script>

It works in IE and FF, but not sure about the others.
