IE6 will open a new window. IE7 and FF will open a new tab (for both browsers this can be overridden by the user in the options)

Status: offline 		that's a good idea.. is it possible to hide the new window, so it'll seem everything is done in the background automatically?

i need to call a javascript functino to get the entered data from the form, go to another website, fill in THAT form with the stored info

Status: offline 		not sure what you mean by "html app or webpage", but I 'll be storing variables from the current form, and on the side, go to another webpage to fill in that webpage's form, with the variables I stored.
I wanted to make this process look automatic, by not showing the second website, and what' it's doing.
