i understand. i had to lookup the exec function in php again b/c i was
almost certain there was an additional arg used to specify a wait time.
there isn't, which i find odd.
are you having the problem in both ie and firefox? while i love ff, i have
noticed some quirks like this...just not this one in particular.
i stay away from frames as much as possible as well. i really think the
target= method will work, however i don't see why window.open wouldn't
work - which is preferable since you have control over how the window
displays, and where. do you have the "dependant" property set to "no"...it
may default to "dependant=yes" in one browser, if it's not specified at all,
while in another it may be "dependant=no"...this would definitely give you
the symptoms you're describing.
