Window focus problem
Alright, I've got a photo gallery set up here. It starts with a page of thumbnails, and then when the thumbnail is clicked it opens in a new window. Now, if the user opens one photo, and then goes back to the thumbnail window and clicks on another thumb, the new photo will load in the pop-up but the pop-up is still in the background. What I want to do is bring focus to the pop-up when the user clicks on a thumb. Here's the page I'm talking about, and I hope this makes sense:

Click on a thumb, then go back to the thumbs page and click on another one without closing the pop-up and you'll see what I mean. I tried putting popup.focus() in several places in the code but it didn't work - I'm just not sure where it's supposed to go.
(Oh, and the SSI's are working fine - thanks for everyone's help)

Nevermind - I figured it out. I should have known that I'd have to do the focusing in the pop-up. I just have to add onload="self.focus();" to the body tag! And the handy Homesite search and replace will do it for me!

just curious, what happens if you put a return false; like this:
<!--function MM_openBrWindow(theURL,winName,features) { //v2.0
window.open(theURL,winName,features);
return false;
}
//-->
