Howdy folks,
thanks for the help so far and i think i have a unique question for you. If not sorry i missed it.

i have a pop up window to show a closer view of a pic. Then i would like them to click on download and open a normal window with registration form while "closing the pop up"

eg, onMousedown open the New Window onMouseup close pop up

<script>
function updateParent(newURL){
opener.document.location = newURL
}
</script>

Then call the function like so:

Registration
