target="_blank" will open a new window every time. That will defeat the 
purpose.

I have many different submit buttons, for different purposes. Depending 
on the $_POST value of each submit button, I tell PHP to do different 
things,

<input value="Update" type="submit"> <input name="DPRmode" value="Enter 
Data" type="submit">

I want to open a different window when I press: <input name="DPRmode" 
value="Enter Data" type="submit">

I guess the best I can hope for is to try

<input name="DPRmode" value="Enter Data" type="submit" 
onclick="OpenWindow()">

<button type="button" onclick="OpenWindow()">Submit</button> will not 
submit the form contents.
