You haven t provided your javascript code  but the usual cause of this type of issue is not waiting till the page is loaded   Remember that most javascript is executed before the DOM is loaded  so code trying to manipulate it won t work   To run code after the page has finished loading  use the   document  ready callback     document  ready function          some-id   trigger  click

In jQuery you can trigger a click like this       foo   trigger  click      More here   http   api jquery com trigger   If you want to do the same using prototype  it looks like this      foo   simulate  click

You are trying to make a popup work maybe  I don t know how to emulate click  maybe you can try to fire click event somehow  but I don t know if it is possible  More than likely such functionality is not implemented  because of security and privacy concerns   You can use div with position absolute to emulate popup at the same page  If you insist creating another page  I cannot help you  Maybe somebody else with more experience will add his 15 cents
