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.....
I am looking through the code on a web page and it has the following link in the script tag within the header:
Code:
if (parent.window.opener) parent.window.opener.location='[URL]';
My assumption, and research on the internet would suggest that it is redirecting the user to Google, but I am a bit confused by the 'parent window' and wanted to know a few things, such as:
- Would the current page be redirected, or would a new window open?
- If the page was triggered for a second time, within seconds of the first time, would the redirect still work?
If my understanding of the code is correct, I'm confused as to why it is on this page, as the page contains information, yet is redirecting the user to another page on load.
I am trying to usw window.open , upload a file in the child window and then referesh the parent window. But once upload is done, window . opener .location.href or opener.location.replace sends a message back but I get a pop up blocker, so if I turn pop up blocker off, it opens in new page. I just want the parent page to refresh on the same window. This works on some employees stations but not on others..I don't know if there are any settings on IE that need to change, I tried everything...weird. does any one done this before?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'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.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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 have a form that is in a popup window. I need the form to submit to the opener window. Is is possible to do that? The opener window is the main window so it is does not have a name and there are no framesets.
<form action="something.php" method="post" target="????">
I'd like to use window.opener in the target but that's JavaScript...
I know somebody has done this before and has the code.

I have a script that opens a popup window (that runs through a wizard) and I need the final page to close the child and target the parent. Sounds easy enough, but it's not working in Netscape6.x.
I named my parent (window.name = 'main' and I target it in the child. This works fine in IE and NS4, but doesn't work in NS6. Is this not a W3C compliant solution and therefore not supported by NS6?
Can anyone think of a way to target window.opener or maybe use some other DOM method to get my child form to target its parent in NS6?
as the title says, "close popup window after submit then redirect to parent". how do i do that? i google it and i saw that some people are using the following code:
window.close();
window.opener.location.reload();
The problem is, i dont know how to use and where them.
I'm using Gravity forms for a fancybox popup here- hit the 'JOIN' button and you'll see the popup. What I need to do is close the popup when the submit button is hit and then redirect the parent page to a specific url. I cannot wrap the submit button itself in a link because I'm using Gravity Forms. Is there another way to do this?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIf 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".
This works fine and adds a new element to the list:
document.forms['formname'].elements['listname'].options[0] = new
Option('foo', 'bar');

window.opener.document.forms['formname'].elements['listname'].options[0]
= new Option('foo', 'bar')
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?

The use of jQuery below does not work for IE9 but works beautifully for Firefox, Chrome & Safari. Before I rewrite it without jQuery, I was hoping to get some feedback on what I've done. Not certain about standards compliance, just know it works fine for all the browsers I'm testing except IE.The user provides an action from a popup window. The action references the opener window, removes a few elements from a hidden element and then immediately repopulates those elements with updated values based on that action.
Code JavaScript:
// does not appear work like this in IE9
window.opener.$('div#hiddenShiftAbbrList').empty();[code].....

I was wondering if it could be that professionals "mutil" processing causing a problem by 1 process excuting before the other?
window.opener.img<%=rowid%>.src = "this.jpg";
window.opener.col<%=rowid%>.innerHTML=strReturn;
window.opener.row<%=rowid%>.style.display = "inline";
The innerHTML and style.display of the above works. Both col?? and row?? can be targeted and changed. However the img?? does not work. The ID on the tag is fine but the image wont change. Incase it was src I tried with style.display too on the image but still wont target it.
