Passing Properties From Parent Window To Child?

May 25, 2010

In javascript I need to pass a variable or function or something from the parent window to the child window. There will be a URL in the parent that needs to be passed into the child so when you click on the link in the child window it pulls in the link from the parent's js. Like this (ignore my rubbish javascript as I'm just writing it to explain my point!)...

Parent window var variableName="http://www.google.com" (send variable to child window)

Child window (pick up variable from parent window and drop it into the link's URL)
<a href="(variableName);">google</a>

This might seem like a crazy way of doing things but it's totally neccasery in the project I'm working on for various reasons.

Not sure if its a variable it needs but either way it needs to be in the js somewhere in the parent and the child needs to read it within the link. Everywhere I've looked on the internet shows how to do this with forms etc but I can't make it work for a URL.

Child And Parent Passing Values

Mar 23, 2006

I have a parent page who allows user to view an invoice for service. My page bases the date and the value for payment to <%now%> and to <%total_price%>.
However I'd like to permit for users to editing those two fields by opeing a popup window with a new form and asking for these two new inputs. Afterward off corse, this values need to populate the equivalent fields on the parent page.

My questions:
1)I'm opening the new window after a js confirm instead of href or onclick methods, so I don't know how to pass the parent variable ID to the child window..

The code:
if (confirmation) {return true;}else{popupwindow("invoice_editing.asp?ID="id"");}

Problem:
the parentID=request.querystring ("ID") don't work

2)My child window picks the new values from the form... but I don know how to pass back the new values to the parent page and then reload it..

Please, but as much specific as you can to my problems and also please put the whole code of proposed solution, since I'm totally lost.

Call Parent Window Function From Child Window?

Jan 18, 2010

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>")

Close Child Window When Parent Window Closes?

May 3, 2009

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.

Refreshing The Parent Window After Closing The Child Window?

Jan 24, 2010

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.

Realod Div In Parent Window From Child Window?

Dec 20, 2005

At 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?
