Hi guys,
I already figure it out. NN4 treats a stand alone file name with window.open
method as a local file specification. What a quirk. So using a whole URL
string would work fine.

Subject: [javascript] JavaScript Error: illegal URL method - an err msg
from NN4
Hello,
What I want to do is to run some server side code for cleaning job just when
a window is to be closed by clicking the window close button X. So I wrote a
line in the document like this:
<body
onUnload="window.open('cleanup.asp','CleanUp','width=200,height=200')">
It comes out that no new window is opened, and the err message from NN4
shows:
JavaScript Error: illegal URL method
'cleanup.asp'
Can anyone help me?
