Re race conditions, note that I've tried doing
"window.open(...); window.setTimeout('document.formName.submit();',
10000);", ie set a 10 second wait on this so that the window definitely
absolutely completely surely exists at submit time. It didn't help. Will
get back on your suggestions in a moment.
