Creates a popup window.
Syntax
oPopup = window.createPopup( [vArgs])
Parameters
vArgs |
Optional.
This argument is reserved for future use.
|
Return Value
Returns the popup window object.
Remarks
The pop-up window is initially in a hidden state.
When an element has focus and causes a popup to appear, the element does not lose focus. Because of this, an onblur event associated with an element that creates a popup will not occur when the popup is displayed.
