Re: using php to open a broswer?
It might not be possible directly through PHP, but it is possible
indirectly.
<?
function openwindow($url, $title = "MyWindow", $width = 400, $height =
200)
{
?><script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
window.open('<?= $url ?>','<?= title ?>','width=<?= $width
?>,height=<?= $height ?>);
</script>
<?
exit;
}
?>
PHP May be server side, but it writes all the content that is seen by
the user, so it is in effect, controlling the js.
