Open the same window multiple times using JavaScript

Question

I'm new to JavaScript and trying to learn. How can I open the same window multiple times using JavaScript? Also, it didn't work when I changed the function name.

Here is the function:

<script type='text/javascript'>
function window(URL) {
    day = new Date();
    id = day.getTime();
    eval("page" + id + " = window.open(URL, '" + id + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=600,height=800,left = 650,top = 250');");
}
</script>

Answer 1

Try something like this:

var numWindows = 0;
var windows = new Array(100);
var parameters = "toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=600,height=800,left = 650,top = 250";

function openNewWindow(url) {
    numWindows += 1;
    var title = "Window #"+numWindows;
    windows[numWindows] = window.open(url, title, parameters);
}

To access the windows, do this:

windows[num]

where num is the id of the window. The first id is 1, the second is 2, and so on.
