Hi, everyone:

I put the following code with html file which make the window popup in front after 5 seconds if other windows over it, it is work fine with Netscape, but dosen't work for IE.

Anyone know how to make this functionality work for IE? I also tried to use window.focus().

Thanks you very much and have a good day!

function TimerCallBack( ){
self.focus();
alert("The session will be expired ,please refresh your window.");
}

setTimeout("TimerCallBack( )",5000);

-->
</script>
