Opening new browser window

I was wondering what the php function is for opening up a new browser window.

Right now my code looks like this:

Code: Select all

header("Location: ../nzb/submitform.php?" . 
			"fileurl=" 		. $fileurl .
			"&name=" 		. $name .
			"&size=" 		. $sizeofallfiles .
			"&numfiles=" 	. $numfiles .
			"&date=" 		. $date .	
			"&group=" 		. $group);
What I want to do is open this in a new window.

Cant you just put it into a link? Whats the use of opening a new page? I would think using a javascript window.open would suffice...

I didn't think to use java script - I guess that will do it.

php can't open a new window.. that's client-side functionality.

How do I send my php variables to JS?

For example:

Code: Select all

$myvariable

?>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="javascript">
<!--
window.open ('titlepage.html?$myvariable, 'newwindow', config='height=100,
width=400, toolbar=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no, resizable=no,
location=no, directories=no, status=no')
-->
</SCRIPT>

Code: Select all

$myvariable = "op=newwindow";
echo "
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=\"javascript\">
<!--
window.open ('titlepage.html?".$myvariable."', 'newwindow', config='height=100,
width=400, toolbar=no, menubar=no, scrollbars=no, resizable=no,
location=no, directories=no, status=no')
-->
</SCRIPT>";
