Positioning A Child Window Relative To The Parent

Jul 23, 2005

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).

What I would like to happen is the remote control to open docked in a
specific location relative to the parent (opener).

Fortunately, I need this to work ONLY in IE, so at least I don't have to
worry about cross-browser issues.

Does anyone know how to open a window realtive to an anchor in the parent
wiondow?

Ajax :: Positioning Window In Parent Window

May 26, 2009

I am hoping that this is a proper forum to post to. I got an Ajax script from Dynamic Drive called "Dynamic Ajax Content" that loads external pages into a DIV in the Parent page. The effect is much like that of an iFrame. I am loading videos into the target DIV. All of that works fine, but visibility on the parent page seems to be a problem. By necessity, I must(?) place the div close to the bottom of the page. However, when I click on a link that loads the video, I would like to have the parent page "jump" to the DIV with the video.

It is probably easier to visualize this than for me to try to explain it: [URL] For instance, if you click on "The Natural", the video indeed loads, but it is not 100% viewable since it is at the bottom of the page. I tried to emulate an <a name=#jump"> <a href="#jump"> scenario, but since javascript is controlling the generation of the Ajax window, it was to no avail (I am embarrassed to say my javascript skills have eroded a bit!).

Relative/absolute Positioning

Jul 23, 2005

I am trying to create a menu system.

The mainmenu is a table
<table><tr><td>menu1</td><td>menu2</td></tr></table>

No I try insert the submenu so that it becomes relative to the main menu
item. For menu1 the relevant code then becomes:

<td style="position:relative;">menu1<div style="position:absolute; top:20;
left:0;">
<a href=x.htm>option1</a><br>
<a href=y.htm>option2</a>
</div></td>

This works fine in IE: the div is positioned relative to the td of menu1.
However, in Mozilla it doesn't work. The div becomes relative to the top of
the page.

What am I doing wrong?

Relative And Absolute Positioning Not Working In Ie9?

Aug 9, 2011

I'm just figuring out how to use absolute inside a relative element to shift an image without changing the flow of the rest of the html. It's working for Firefox 4, but not IE 9.

In firefox the div element doesn't cause a hole in the flow. The div and the image inside is simply moved over to where they should be. But in IE, the image is sitting there as part of the flow bumping down the next things (the text and span tags) and the image isn't moving over to the right at all.

I've tried wrapping the div in an another div but that made no difference. Am I crazy to think this is supposed to work? I'm inserting the div and image tags dynamically in the client in javacript.

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?
