how can i do that one pls help me
On your button is there a url link to #
ie
<a href="#" onClick="window.open('blah','blah','etc')">The Link Here</a>
If so the link is doing the pop up and looking for an anchor on the page where the button sits. It does not find one and jumps to the top of the page.
If you use...
<a href="javascript:;" onClick="window.open('blah','blah','etc')">The Link Here</a>
...it should stop that.
I am not sure from your post exactly what methods you use but I can remember this happening to me once or twice.
Hope this helps.
<jnew:button property="orange.paper.addOnce" Class="button" onclick="javascript:addOncePro();">Add New</jnew:button>
this is that button, i am draging the main window just below and i click this button. One pop up window is opening, and i select a value, then in the main window
one text field added and filled with the value which i select.What is the problem is the after i selecting value the pop up window closed ,and the field filled with the value the main window is going above, so i have to drag that main window, then only iam able to see the filled values, i need that the main window should be in the same position (that is the position before i click the button)This is happening only in Netscape only
That doesn't mean anything in HTML. What does the browser really see?

You need to make sure that addOncePro() returns false.
If an onClick handler returns false, then the browser will stop at that point. If it returns anything else, then the browser will jump to the location of the href attribute. Apparently Netscape assumes the current document if the href attribute is missing.
Btw: I think that an <a> tag without either a href or a name attribute is invalid HTML.
