  Hi Michael:
  Thanks

  I now have the following settings: (from .emacs custom-set-variables)
    .....
    '(w3m-pop-up-frames t)
    '(w3m-pop-up-windows nil))

  But the behavior I described above persists.
  I'll look at the variable list. The solution should be in there.

   Using RH 9.0, emacs 21.4.1

   Thanks again
