dsonesuk Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 Might be pop-up blocker, preventing new window opening. There is no such thing as selected="0"? It's either 'selected' on its own or 'selected="selected"'( both without single quotes). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsonesuk Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 It seems to work, although it loads a blank page if first option is selected because it's value is empty string, I would check for that before attempting to open it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vmars316 Posted March 3, 2019 Author Share Posted March 3, 2019 Aha you were right from the beginning . I uninstalled my Chrome adBlocker but that didnt solve problem . I didn't realize that Chrome has an internal blocker. Turns out Chrome has under 'Advanced Settings' something called 'Content Settings' and under there is a settings called 'Pop-ups and redirects' once I reset that to 'Allowed' all is well . Edge also has an 'Advanced Setting' called 'Block pops-ups' that needs to be turned off . Likewise InternetExplorer has a check box under 'Internet Options' that needs to be UNchecked called 'Turn on Pop-up Blocker' . Having changed , the page still doesn't work properly . Must be something more needs to be tweaked . Anyways , Thanks for your help ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
