Thank you for taking the time to look over my problem.. I am using the windows script with tab support.. I have noticed the close button for the window hides the window but it returns when the page loads.. Do not know if its a bug or not but since the cookie suppose to remember if the window is opened or closed I am guessing something is wrong.. Also I noticed there is a parameter for making the window invisible when the page loads but I do not see a way to make the window appear with a link.. Thanks again for any help given..
