thanks.

I don't think I understand what you mean...

This isn't really important anymore, but still would be nice to know.

Okay, i know I can write to a window I opened with javascript by going newwindow.document.write

but how do i clear it back to nothing without closing it and opening it again (which crashes IE quite often)?

Can I just do newwindow.document.clear? well you cant, but you get my point (i hope).

Okay, thanks.

Hmm.... Try:

newwindow.document.write('')

If it doesn't work, try:

newwindow.document.write('v')

What are you talking about? I am confused.

All those commands would do is *append* nothing, and then *append* a v.

Well, you want the new window to be EMPTY onClick, right?

[jumpthru]

basically i want to open a window, write to the window, clear the window (empty it), then write more to the window.

I know this works:

document.open();
document.clear();
document.close();

I'm not sure if just one or two of those causes that, but all three work together.

Like I said before, I dont need this anymore, I wrote a work around that works even better, but thanks anyways, this will be helpful to know in the future.
