Closing Pop-up And Changing Location Of Opener In Opera
Sep 9, 2009
Here is what I have: a regular main window that opens a small pop-up for preview purposes. This pop-up window has a text link to close it and a text link to close it and reach a page with more detail in the main window. I have been trying an infinite number of things so far and I cannot get this last link to work in Opera 10. All workarounds are just fine in FF 3 and IE 8. Here is the function called when clicking the link to "close and go":
We have a micro site that is getting opened inside a popup window from some external main site (the domains of our microsite and main site are different) ...
I need to support the following functionality: After the user is done surfing the pages on our site and user clicks the close hyperlink (present on top of all of our webpages), the opener window's location needs to be reset to some given URL ....
I had a small javascript code for this, where i have written: window.opener.location.assign("<url>"); .
My problem is that this line of code is throwing an exception saying "Permission denied to access method location.assign" ...
Can anybody help me and let me know why am I getting this exception? and how to overcome this problem?
I have a inventory control program written and I use window.opener.location='filename.html' window.close()
It works fine in ie6 on windows 98 and XP home but sometimes for users with XP professional it crashes ie6 (wants to send a error reports to microsoft and the closes)
I was wondering if it could be that professionals "mutil" processing causing a problem by 1 process excuting before the other?
I am trying to use the window.opener.location code from a link on my popup window to change the webpage in the window that opened my popup. It works on ie/firefox, but doesnt work on safari.
Now i've tried the link with both <a href="#" changepage(35);"> and <a href="javascript:changepage(32);"> but safari doesnt want to touch the opener page. Do you know of any workaround/hack to get this to work? If not, is there a way to check to see if the user has safari and change the code to opening the page in a new window?
I have a real problem with an e-commerce site which has worked for years without a hitch but with the uptake of IE8 (it seems) this problem is getting more and more frequent Problem: customer continues through checkout on main site (http:[url]....).
When they have to enter their credit card details, they click on a link to open a window (https:[url]....). The details are verified and if valid, the customer is returned to the confirmation page in the parent screen (http:[url]....) and the payment window is closed . Pop-up blockers are causing problems here but even when pop-up blockers are disabled, the confirmation page loads in a new window.I'm using :

In phase of my deployment I send the user a window from a servlet and inorder to communicate with an applet already loaded in another window in the browser I thought I could set the window.opener.location="${formbean.property}"; and it partly works, it get set, I see the new window flash, but it then executes that url. Two questions?
1. setting the window.opener.location in an onLoad() should not force a post back to the server, correct? I am just trying to keep that window I want up there and set an internal property so I can access the applet in the other window. Trying to make this "synthetically" a child of that page opened with the applet so I can call the applets methods simply.
2. Is there another way for a new browser window to directly access an applet in another page? I could go the route of making a probe applet and hoping they share the same JVM, (JRE1.6.0.25) access it that way. Is/how that the way to do it?
I have a popup that contains a form. When I submit that form, I need 1) the data to get saved into my database, 2) the popup to close, and 3) the parent window to refresh and display the updated data.
I found the following code in an old thread, but the parent window still shows the old data after it appears to reload. The data is saved in the database, but the parent window only shows the updated data when I manually refresh it by hitting F5.
I'm using window.showModalDialog but having an issue trying to set the parent window(main browser). I open modal window A which is then opens modal window B, top of modal window B onload I do window.opener.close()". My issue now is when i'm finished with B I set parent window(main browser) to a new url with window.opener.location. So my problem is modal window A the parent has been closed so window.opener.location will not work.
Is there any way to change the contents of the location bar, such as to add something like "?c=1" to the end of the url, without causing the web page to reload itself?
I have a problem with IE and location.hash. If I change the hash, the history doesn't "update" and it only keeps one record of the URL. This whole website is AJAX-driven and I need the user to be able to use the forward and back buttons in the browser. Everything works fine and dandy, tested on all the major browsers on PC and Mac, except for IE (both 6 and 7).
In case I wasn't clear, here's a way to reproduce in IE6/7:
Go to google.com Go to yahoo.com#one Go to yahoo.com#two Click back. You'll be back to google.com instead of yahoo.com#one
I see how the window.opener works, pretty neat in that the pop window knows the parent.
Is there a property that also knows the form field parent?
My function does not know which of the 3 select menus called it.
What can I do?
function onCarrierSelect() { // var frm = document.carrRequestForm.carrierList.selectedIndex var selectCar = document.carrRequestForm.carrierList.options[frm].text; alert(selectCar); if (window.opener && !window.opener.close) window.opener.document.form(x how make global?).nbcarrier(x how make global?).value = selectCar window.close(); }
p.s. as an aside I know the form field name, it is literally in the querystring, but that is ASP/vbscript and no way to get it into the jscript function...
I am writing a modification to Invision Power Board that makes replying to post via Ajax.
The "Submit" button is being overrun by Prototype's observe function. When the custom function is executed, I run Event.stop(e) to prevent the actual form from being submitted and reload the page.
I have developed and tested on Safari but users began to report bugs in IE, after investigation I discovered that the line
Code:
Is making IE execute all the code after it, and then execute its own onclick() function as if Event.stop(e) was not there. Commenting this line fixes the problem, the page is not reloaded, but this line is vital to the code.
So why do I need to set the anchor? To support the back button function after a user makes an ajax reply, pressing Back should hide the new content, and pressing Forward should make it visible. (e.g. every time the anchor is changed) This all works nicely. But not in IE.
This only happens the first time the page is visited ever, or clearing cache and visiting it again. Reloading the page fixes the problem but this is not normal behavior and users shouldn't have to reload to use the Ajax fast reply...
I'm using a service to remotely create a pdf - it creates a pdf of the page you're on. Unfortunately that includes the link as well. I'd like to push the pdf generator to a slightly different url which would remove the offending link. The link I have is:
[Code]....
but it is not fooled! It seems I need to edit location.href but I don't know how to do it!!
I have a starting page, Page1.php that uses Page1.js.In Page1.js, I'm using the onclick event for a button that's on that page. When the button is clicked, it goes to Page2.php. Okay, fine.Page2.php is using Page2.js. But when the browser switches to page 2, I get a javascript error because, somehow, it's still referencing the Page1.js file. (Using IE8)So how do I 'dereference' the first javascript file, so that when Page2 loads, it doesn't still try to instantiate the objects in Page1.js? (I'm getting a null object error when Page2.php loads).
Danged if I can find the thread, but I swear I saw a $.url() reference in here a day or two ago. It was beingutilized for parsing out the window.location or window.location.search parameters. I made a mental note because that was something I would be needing to do.
Now I can't find it, either because the search isn't finding it or I was dreaming about this function existing.
I rummaged about the API docs and didn't find it there either. Is it something provided by one of the plugins and not a function native to jQuery?
If i open a link either by using the right mouse menu "open in new window" or press shift (IE) on the link the page will be opened in a new window. From this window I can use the window.opener object to access the opening window.
When doing this in NN7.1 I cannot access windows.opener. If I open the window with window.open I can also use the window.opener to access the opening window but not if I open the new window by pressing CTRL an clicking the link or using right click "Open link in new window".
Is it only possible to access the window.opener if the window was opened with window.open in NN7?
I have a normal window cotaining a form (named form1). The form has a text input called imageURL. There is a button that, when clicked, opens a new window that contains three frames (left, right and bottom.) In the right frame is another form (named form2) with a hidden input (selected). When form2 is submitted, I want the value of selected to be passed back to the imageURL on form1 and then close. The code I have tried is as follows:
(From my frame...) <SCRIPT language="JavaScript"> function passValues() { // pass variable back to parent window window.opener.document.form1.imageURL.value = document.form2.selected.value; } top.window.close(); </SCRIPT>
It closes just fine, but imageURL on form1 never changes.
I have just created an 'open window' function for an animated page. It opens the current animation from the current page into a new window, and lets the user change the 'opener' animation while the new animation in the new window continues, sychronised with the opener.
As the opener contains the clock for sychronisation, I can only use the animations from that page (and I have a few pages of small animations). I can let the new animation on the new page continue with its own clock if the opener is closed, but what I would like is if a new animation is started from a new opener, then it tells the existing opened window the new page speed...
got it????? trymy rhythm pages follow steps..... 1; open new window 2; click on drum in new window to turn on 3; start rhythm by clicking on hands in main window
I can change between rhythms, so long as I stay on the main page. The problem is when I change the main page to go to other rhythms I loose the sychronisation.
I can go to another page(from opener) and put a new rhythm in the current new window, but I would prefer to keep the old rhythm and sychronise.
How do I get the contents of an element in the opener and show them in the child?
What I'm trying to do is something like this:
In the opener: <h1 id="pgtitle">Office XP</h1>
In the child: function gt_pageCont () { var pagetitle = window.opener.document.getElementById("pgtitle"); var pagetext = "<h1>""+title+""</h1><p>Here are some more info about "" +title+ "".</p>"; document.write(pagetext); }
and: <body onload="gt_pageCont();">
I know that something is missing in the function, because I've tested it and the child displays [Object] instead of "Office XP".
I have a popup which contains a frame set; one of the frames contains a form. When the form is submitted, I want it to go back to the opener of the popup. I have:
document.forms[0].target = parent.opener;
But on submit it opens a new window. If I put:
document.write(parent.opener.name);
it gives me the correct value, so I know I'm pointing to the right place. Any idea why this doesn't work and/or how to get it to?
I've got a problem calling parent.opener.document within Internet Explorer version 6.0.2900.2180.xpsp.050928-1517. The call leads to a script error 'Unallowed memory access'. Within older IE version and other browsers it works fine.....
