Popup window upon clicking a hyperlinked banner

[developer_x]

Hi,
I have made a new info box, and placed a bannner in it. I want it to be hyerlinked through a popup window linked to another site.

How can i embedd this javascript code into catalog/includes/boxes/my_box.php?

<a href="http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164255" target="_blank" onClick="this.newWindow = window.open('http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164255&url=' + document.location, 'Chat', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,men ubar=0,resizable=1,width=640,height=480'); this.newWindow.focus(); this.newWindow.opener = window;return false;"><img alt="Live chat by Boldchat" src="http://www.roseluggage.com/images/headbabe12.jpg" border="1"></a>


I know where to embedd it:

$info_box_contents[] = array('align' => 'center',
'text' => '<a href="http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164255">' . tep_image (DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'headbabe12.jpg', 'LiveSales') . '</a>' );

But I need to use the javascript coding in order to get a pop up window.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for replying. I have done that. But it still doesn't work. I have to use this javascript code:

<a href="http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164290" target="_blank" onClick="this.newWindow = window.open('http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164290&url=' + document.location, 'Chat', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,men ubar=0,resizable=1,width=640,height=480'); this.newWindow.focus(); this.newWindow.opener = window;return false;"><img alt="Live chat by Boldchat" src="http://www.roseluggage.com/images/headbabe12.jpg" border="1"></a>

so that someone clicks the image of a box 'live_salesperson.php", boldchat's live support opens up in a pop up window. The coding of live_salespersons.php is:

<!-- specials //-->
<tr>
<td>
<?php
$info_box_contents = array();
$info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_LIVE_SALESPERSONS);

new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false, tep_href_link(FILENAME_LIVE_SALESPERSONS));

$info_box_contents = array();
$info_box_contents[] = array('align' => 'center',
'text' => '<a href="http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164290">' . tep_image (DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'headbabe12.jpg', 'LiveSales') . '</a>' );

new infoBox($info_box_contents);

?>
</td>
</tr>
<!-- specials_eof //-->

This works. But i need a popup window. I think my problem is that i have to correclty use javascript code with in the single quotes which are infront of 'text' => .
Someone talked about quotes within quotes are not allowed.

I tried this but doesn't work. Code is:

<?php
$info_box_contents = array();
$info_box_contents[] = array('text' => BOX_HEADING_LIVE_SALESPERSONS);

new infoBoxHeading($info_box_contents, false, false, tep_href_link(FILENAME_LIVE_SALESPERSONS));

$info_box_contents = array();
$info_box_contents[] = array('align' => 'center',
//'text' => '<a href="http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164290">' . tep_image (DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'headbabe12.jpg', 'LiveSales') . '</a>');
'text' => ?>
<script language="javascript"><!--
document.write('<?php echo '<a href="javascriptopupWindow(\\\' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_POPUP_IMAGE, 'pID=' . $product_info['products_id']) . '\\\')">' . tep_image(DIR_WS_IMAGES . $product_info['products_image'], addslashes($product_info['products_name']), SMALL_IMAGE_WIDTH, SMALL_IMAGE_HEIGHT, 'hspace="5" vspace="5"') . '<br>' . TEXT_CLICK_TO_ENLARGE . '</a>' ?>');
//--></script>
<?php );
new infoBox($info_box_contents);

?>

I didn't copied the javascript function again. although it is there.
Any suggestions?

I had contacted a person who had done the popup window feature at her site. And she was clearly not willing to cooperate. It is really pathetic when people of the open soure don't share knowledge after getting help from the community themselves.
It should not have taken this much time to fix this problem. All I needed to do was to add an extrabacks slash before a few single quotes. I repeat in order to embed the bold chat coding in to the single quotes of an associative array of php, you need to change a few ' to \' . My coding is given below:

$info_box_contents[] = array('align' => 'center',
'text' => '<a href="http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164290" target="_blank" onClick="this.newWindow = window.open(\'http://chat.boldchat.com/chat/visitor.jsp?cdid=961164290&url=\' + document.location, \'Chat\', \'toolbar=0,scrollbars=1,location=0,statusbar=0,me nubar=0,resizable=1,width=640,height=480\'); this.newWindow.focus(); this.newWindow.opener = window;return false;"> ' . tep_image (DIR_WS_IMAGES . 'banner_livesales.jpg', 'LiveSales') . '</a>');
