Thanks for the speedy reply. You pointed me in the right direction, the line that needed to be changed is as follows:

(Press cancel to open your $inboxname in the current window.)");
if (second_box==true) {

window.open('private.php?s=$session[sessionhash]','pmnew','width=600,height=
500,menubar=yes,scrollbars=yes,toolbar=yes,locatio n=yes,directories=yes,resi
zable=yes,top=50,left=50');

when I concatenated the private.php to the actual URL that solved my problem....

:banana:

Thanks again - bobII
