Trying to create a pop up - getting a script error. Help?

[Ari Gold]

My boss wants me to make a temporary pop up appear on our website's home page
to announce the availability of a new service our company is offering. I do
not want to use the pop up message available, I want it to open a new browser
window to display the information page I've created. I have done this
before with success and I tried it on several pages just to be sure it wasn't
something going on with the home page. Our URL is www.ajwinc.com - I have
removed the behavior but could someone please take a look at the html and see
if there is anything in there that would prevent the script error?

The error I get is "Script Error Line 32 Char 2 Error. Access is denied"
I went to "line 32 char 2" and I don't see anything.

Thanks in advance.

Without all of the script in the page, it's kind of hard to figure out what was causing it.

However, the kind of pop up you are trying to use will be blocked in IE 6 in Windows XP SP2
and all future IE versions,
and also by most pop up blockers.

Hmmm that's right. I haven't thought about that (pop up blocker) ... so if I
use the "pop up" script instead of opening a new window will that be blocked
as well?

If you mean a message by using a javascript alert window, it "might" work and it might be
blocked as active content.
To be perfectly honest, I've never tried it.

Thanks for your time, Steve. I think I'm just gonna go an entirely different
route.

imho, the best way would have an obvious "Click for News" link to open a page.
