Here's a sample of the code. Like I said, it worked fine on the old server. The problem is outlined below the code: elseif ($genderz !=9) { echo "<span class=\"resultsHeader\"><h1>Here's Your Horses!</h1></span>"; echo "<span class=\"lead\">"; echo "Click on any horse. It will open a new window. To see another horse from this selection, simply close down that window and you'll be right back here!</span>"; echo "<span class=\"results\">"; $result = mysql_query("SELECT id, gender, color, name, birth, price, performance_one, performance_more, height, description FROM horse ORDER BY price"); $total_rows = mysql_numrows($result); $counter = 0; $countertwo = 0; while($counter < $total_rows): $id = mysql_result($result,$counter,"id"); $genderee = mysql_result($result,$counter,"gender"); $namee = mysql_result($result,$counter,"name"); $coloree = mysql_result($result,$counter,"color"); $pricee = mysql_result($result,$counter,"price"); $birthee = mysql_result($result,$counter,"birth"); $performance_onee = mysql_result($result,$counter,"performance_one"); $performance_moree = mysql_result($result,$counter,"performance_more"); $heightee = mysql_result($result,$counter,"height"); $descriptionee = mysql_result($result,$counter,"description"); if ($genderee == $genderz) { ?> <a href="#a" onClick="horseWindow()"> <script language="Javascript1.2"> function horseWindow() { newWindow = window.open("Your_Horse.php3?name=<? echo $namee; ?>&color=<? echo $coloree; ?>&gender=<? echo $genderee; ?>&price=<? echo $pricee; ?>&birth=<? echo $birthee; ?>&performance_one=<? echo $performance_onee; ?>&performance_more=<? echo $performance_moree; ?>&height=<? echo $heightee; ?>&description=<? echo $descriptionee; ?>","","toolbar=1,menubar=0,width=800,height=600,scrollbars=1,status=0,locat ion=0,directories=0,left=0,top=0"); } </script> <? echo mysql_result($result,$counter,"name"); echo "</a><br>"; $countertwo = $countertwo + 1; } $counter = $counter + 1; endwhile; echo "</span>"; if ($countertwo == 0) { echo "<span class=\"sorry\">I'm sorry, but there are no horses that fit your criteria. click the &quot;Back&quot; button on this browser window and try another search.</span>"; } } > I have a Javascript that worked perfectly well on another server, *then* I > > built my own server.
