I'm looking for a way to get a variable from a parent window in a child window. I'm aware that you can write the variable to a hidden field and then get the field's value in the child window, but I'm looking for a cleaner (all JS preferable) way of doing this.
Something like this, but I believe this is an out-dated solution code...

View 1 Replies View RelatedPut a link on my page that will open an external site (over which I have no control) in a pop-up window. When the user closes the pop-up, I want my original page to redirect to another page. The difficulty I'm having is that I can't add any code to the page in the pop-up as it's not my site.
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow can I trap, that on closing a parent window the child window should
also get closed.
I have created and opened a child window called "checkwin" and have written some data to it. If the data is valid, I want the user to click on the 'CONFIRM' button on the child window, at which time I want the "submit()" function for the form on the parent window to be executed. If the data is invalid the user clicks on 'MODIFY' and I want focus to return to a field on the parent form. However, when I click on the "CONFIRM" or "MODIFY" buttons on the child window, nothing happens. Here is the code:
checkwin.document.write("</td></tr><tr><td align='right'><input type='button' value='CONFIRM'
onclick='opener.document.personnel_form.submit()'></td><td></td><td><input type='button' value='MODIFY'
onclick='opener.document.personnel_form.first_name.focus()'></td></tr></table>")
I'm trying to create code to close the child window I'm creating if the parent window is closed. Here's my code so far:
function openWindow() {
var newWin = window.open(); // open the new window
newWin.document.write('<h1>Child Window</h1>
[Code]...
The above openWindow function is used in this event: <input type="button" name="btn" onclick="openWindow()"value="Open a new window" />
I can generate the new window fine. I just can't close it if the parent window is closed.
My scenario is like this.
1. Click on button and pop up child window.
2. Select multiple checkbox and submit array which send back to parent window and value store in a hidden variable.

I have a parent page which I don't have control of. I call my child page from parent page, perform some operations and once I click update child window should close and parent window should be refreshed.Everything seems to work fine except the parent page not refreshing.I tried using window.opener.location.reload(true). But it makes a postback in the parent page and so the values that I update are lost because it makes a postback with the previous values.I tried window.opener.document.locationwindow.opener.document.location. But this doesn't refresh my parent page.

View 4 Replies View RelatedAt the moment, I have a page listing keywords associated with an image. The user can click an 'add keyword' link, which loads a child window where they have a form to select & add extra keywords. Now, at the moment when they submit the form, the page reloads the parent window using an onload event. However, I would prefer it if it only reloaded the DIV which holds their keyword list.
My thinking was I could do it with AJAX or something, but I can't find anywhere that even mentions if it's possible. Can anyone help? Is this possible, or am I too ambitious?

Is it possible to refresh a parent browser window when a "child"

When I refer to child window, I mean that a link within a "parent" window has opened a new browser window.

I have made a remote control window which opens from its parent. On loading, the remote is positioned relative to the screen using window.moveTo(x,y).

worry about cross-browser issues.

Passing value from parent to child window created by Pop up.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have some javascript that works in Firefox 2 but not in IE 7. In the
parent page, a user clicks a link and a new window is opened so that
they can maintain some values. When the user is finished, they can
click either a save or a cancel button. If the user clicks the save
button, I want the parent page to be refreshed and then the child
window to close. I have this working perfectly in FF2 but it does not
in IE. In IE, the parent page is refreshed but when it refreshes, the
screen that comes back is the same screen as the child window. When
the child window should close, it instead is being refreshed and comes
back as a blank screen. Code:
I need to send possibly many values from a popup child window to a parent window. Say:

Each click of add adds the fruit into a input text box, on the parent page. [URL]I could make a form for every fruit and send it back this way. It is troublesome, but can be done.
