RE: [PHP-WIN] Using Inernet Explorer COM object and need to reference popup windows

I'm using PHP's COM class to instantiate IE and go through some automated routines (e.g., go to URL, click a couple of links, etc.), for testing purposes on our website. To be more specific, I'm using PHP CLI to do all of this automation. For the most part, I can open the browser, tell it to go to a specific URL, click links, etc, with PHP. In addition, I can verify certain things along the way, like the Window title, content, etc. However, I'm having a little trouble verifying links on the web page that open a pop-up (i.e., target=_new in the href tag). The latter is where I am seeking advice from the newsgroup.
