I created a javascript file that contains a series of functions for popup windows to eight diffrent info blurbs and found IE 7 displays a completely blank (white) page when calling the script via this method:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../includes/pop_windows.js" />
For the record, I tested same in Firefox, and it plays with it just fine.
Frustrated, I resorted to the less efficient (in my opinion) method of calling the scripts from the <head> section of the source page itself, i.e.:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function p1() {
aWindow=window.open("p1.htm","thewindow","toolbar=no,width=750,height=350,scrollbars=no,resize=no,menubar=no");
}
function p2() {
aWindow=window.open("p2.htm","thewindow","toolbar=no,width=750,height=380,scrollbars=no,resize=no,menubar=no");
}
....etc ..............
//-->
</script>
It worked, but if I'm correct (someone please set me straight if I'm NOT) that IE 7 can't handle the first method, I hope they fix it.

Javascript bug?

David,
Your genius was my gain today -- your suggestion works.
Much thanks,

Maybe you should try to replace this line:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../includes/pop_windows.js" />
with:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript" src="../includes/pop_windows.js"></script>
I've had similar problem in IE6.
