Is there some code that you can use to check if a particular url-window is open already?
If no open that url in a new window,
If yes go to that window. |

You can check if a particular window exists but you cannot see if some browser windows have a particular URL.
Just save the window pointer using a code like this:
var myWin=window.open("myurl")
then you can check using this code if the window exists
if (myWin) {
//do something
}
or
if (myWin.document.location=="myurl") {
// do something
}
so the best method is by combining the two like:
if (myWin) {
if (myWin.document.location=="myurl") {
// do something
}
}
then you can focus the window using (I'm not sure but it's a thing like this)
myWin.focus();
or
myWin.document.focus();

And if the window exist, will it reload the content or not?
So, if there's a music player playing a song will it start over again or not?
Thanks already! |

no it will not reload the page.
In order to reload the page you have to write
myWin.document.location.reload(true); |

I'm such a javascript nono [2 puppy]
I found -what I think can be- a solution on experts-exchange but I'm not sure how to properly use it in DHE
This is the code I've found:
<script>
var id= "w001";
newWin=window.open('', id);
newLoc = newWin.location.href.split('/');
newLoc = newLoc[newLoc.length-1];
if(newLoc!='nw.html'){
newWin=window.open('nw.html', id, 'resizable,width=1015,height=700');
} else {
newWin.focus();
}
</script>
I have this hotspot on my site that I want to open a window with a music-player on it. This code should make sure that if that particular window is already open it won't reload. But... how and where can I insert this code? |

Simply he says 
If you don't have a clue what you're doing (like me) this is proving to be quite difficult.
When I put the above code in a HTML box on the page the popup loads immidiately. I want it to load after someone has clicked an image. |

ok, then you can include the code in a javascript function like this:
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function openWin()
{
var id= "w001";
newWin=window.open('', id);
newLoc = newWin.location.href.split('/');
newLoc = newLoc[newLoc.length-1];
if(newLoc!='nw.html'){
newWin=window.open('nw.html', id, 'resizable,width=1015,height=700');
} else {
newWin.focus();
}
}
//-->
</script>
then you can create an event on an image (choose OnClick, JavaCall and write the name of the function: 'openWin();')
