Help with New Window + Search Function

[Ingla]

Hello.

I've got this javascript search engine working on a site.

The problem is I don't know much javascript, but have managed to get it to work. BUT I need the search to open in a new window.

Trying various coding to open a window, I've managed to get a blank window to come up, but it's blank! I can't get the search results to appear in the new window. I've found no help on the web for getting onclick to do two things at once.

If anyone could help (in baby talk for a javascript newbie..maybe just add to this code in bold or red or something?), I'd surely appreciate it.

The search engine code is:

--------------------------------------------------------------------

<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">

//<![CDATA[

<!--

function startSearch(){searchString = document.searchForm.searchText.value;if(searchString != ""){searchEngine = document.searchForm.whichEngine.selectedIndex + 1;finalSearchString = "";

if(searchEngine == 1){finalSearchString = "http://www.altavista.com/cgi-bin/query?pg=q&what=web&q=" + searchString;}

if(searchEngine == 2){finalSearchString = "http://www.galaxy.com/cgi-bin/query?keys=" + searchString;}

if(searchEngine == 3){finalSearchString = "http://www.google.com/search?q=" + searchString + "&btnG=Google+Search";}

if(searchEngine == 4){finalSearchString = "http://www.lycos.com/cgi-bin/pursuit?query=" + searchString + "&backlink=639";}

if(searchEngine == 5){finalSearchString = "http://search.yahoo.com/bin/search?p=" + searchString;}


if(searchEngine == 18){finalSearchString = "http://de.search.yahoo.com/search/de?p=" + searchString;}location.href = finalSearchString;}}// -->



//]]>

</script>

<form name="searchForm">

<table width="200" border cellpadding=3 cellspacing=2 bgcolor="#ebebeb">

<tr>
<td width="75" bgcolor=lightblue><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">Search<br> for:<br>
<td width="100" bgcolor=lightblue><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">Search<br> from:
<td width="25" bgcolor=lightblue><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">&nbsp;
<!--<td width="100" bgcolor=lightblue><font size=1 face="Verdana, Arial, sans-serif">&nbsp;-->


<tr>
<td bgcolor=navajowhite><input style="background: dddddd" size="2" name="searchText" type="text"><!--<br><p>-->
<td bgcolor=navajowhite>
<select width="2" name="whichEngine"
&nbsp;
//!<onchange="startSearch()">


<option >Altavista</option>


<option>Galaxy</option>

<option selected>Google</option>

<option>Lycos</option>

<option>Yahoo!</option>
&nbsp;<br>


<td bgcolor=navajowhite valign="bottom">&nbsp;<br>
<input type="button" value="Go" onClick="startSearch()">

</select></form>
</table>
---------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks very much.

To make results open in NEW window, replace:

(use find function)

location.href = finalSearchString;}}// -->

with:

NewWin = window.open(finalSearchString);}}// -->
