Check if Popup Window Closed

Sometimes you will want to use a popup window for an antiquated system and need to maintain a reference to the popup window so that when the popup loses focus you can bring it back in focus with a click of a button. The following script will allow you to do that.
In brief, the script opens a window when a button is clicked, if it loses focus you just need to click the button again to get it back. The script also deals with the fact that the user may close their browser window, navigate away from the main page or refresh the current browser window.
Enjoy!
