The onclick function is not working properly as it is disabling all the links

  • 0

The onclick function is not working properly as it is disabling all the links on the parent window even after I close it.
On closing the pop up window, the parent page links are not working anymore. Everything else is working fine.

My code is:- 

             function MyPopUpWin(message) {
             var iMyWidth;
         var iMyHeight;
         //half the screen width minus half the new window width (plus 5 pixel borders).
           iMyWidth = (window.screen.width/2) - (75 + 10);
         //half the screen height minus half the new window height (plus title and status bars).
          iMyHeight = (window.screen.height/2) - (100 + 50);
         //Open the window.
 var generator = window.open();
document.onclick=function()   {
    try{
        generator.focus();
        return false
    }
    catch(e){}
}

generator.document.write('<html><head><title>Pop uP</title>');
generator.document.write('<p style="color:#C52B27;">');
generator.document.write(message);
generator.document.write('</p>');
generator.document.write('</head><body>');

 generator.document.write('<a href="javascript:self.close()"><img src="/img/save_orange.gif" border=0">  <\/a>');
generator.document.write('</body></html>');
generator.document.close();
 }

    After closing the window, the reference to it is not lost… and the .focus() method does not fail.. so you try/catch is not doing what you think..

    <a href="javascript:window.opener.document.onclick = null;self.close();">
