Hi,
I've noticed different behavior in IE6 and IE7 and later versions. We have a webpage that will open a new window (window.showmodaldialog) upon clicking submit.
In IE6, when I clicked submit and while waiting the webpage A to load, I open another webpage to read. When the webpage A finish loading, a new window will bring to background and did not block the current webpage which I was reading.
However, in IE7 and later versions, the new window will bring to foreground and block the current webpage which I was reading. I have tried all settings and modifying the registry as per advice online to force the new window to background and not to steal the focus but to no avail.
Is it a bug or it is a new design in IE7 and later versions?
Please advice. Thanks in advance.
