Application on Notes Client and Internet Explorer6

Application on Notes Client and Internet Explorer6

I have to make an application work both on Notes Client and Internet Explorer6. In a form, I want to create an action button using JavaScript code to simulate a dialog box. The result is good in Internet Explorer, but not in Notes Client. In fact, it seems to be impossible to generate a blank page and fill it with JavaScript in Notes: 
    mp = window.open('','Selection','...arg...');
    mp.document.write('Select names :');

Is this true? Do you have any solutions?

I would advise you to create separate solutions for displaying the dialog box –- one for the Notes client and one for the browser. I don't think that it is doable with JavaScript.
