What I'd like to add is add a line of code that will close the calling
parent window (right now I make it visible by resizing it and clicking on a
close link). I'll even settle for having to confirm the closure but, the
ultimate would be that it would close by itself. Code:
I've got a situation where I'm updating a MySQL DB with PHP but because of how the language works I need to do the following.
The "main page" will open a remote page where the user will add/edit/modify data then on the confirmation page, there needs to be a close button. However, before the window is closed, I want it to reload the "main window" so that they can see the changes they made. I've been digging through the google groups and JS sources on the net but I'm just not finding answers for a JS newb like myself.....

I have a popup window which has the search form in. What I want to do is for the popup window to close once the form is submitted, and to post the form data to a page on the main window.

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.

- I have a button on my Flash site that opens an HTML page in a popup window. In Flash, I open the new window using Actiosnscript 2.0:
- Within the popup window are links to other HTML pages. They all open in the same window. I've been using the following to create the links in Dreamweaver:
- On each page, I have a "Return to Main Menu" button that should close the popup window. To do this, I have been using:
- The problem is that it works differently in each browser, and I can't even get it to consistently close the window in most browsers:
Internet Explorer = popup message appears, asking "Are you sure you want to close this window?" or something similar; window closes after clicking "Yes."
Safari = Only closes if I'm on the original HTML page. If I click on any of the other links (note that these all open in the same window), those pages' "Return to Main Menu" buttons cease to work. However, if I keep clicking "Back" until I get to the original page, it closes.
Opera = Button actually works for each page.
Firefox & Chrome = Does not close the window at all.
I looked into it and saw that others have used a window.opener to solve similar issues. But, since my popup window is opened using Flash/AS2, I need to find a way around it.
I've tried preceding "window.close()" with "window.opener=null" (i.e. -onClick="window.opener=null; window.close()"), but I don't think I'm doing it right because it still doesn't work.
I've also seen others use codes that involve functions and variables, but it is beyond my current coding knowledge to implement this. Like I said, I'm sort of new at this.
In my main window, I create a popup window. Is there a way to bring the main window back to the foreground (make the main window the focus window again) from the popup window using JS? Like from a link or a button?
I have a popup window that comes up when a user doesn't have access to a certain page within my site. The problem is when a user clicks on something the popup window comes up but the bigger sized window of that popup comes up in the background as well. I am trying to have my popup window come up while the original page I clicked from is still focused/seen in the background. This is the code I currently am using, can anyone help me with what I am missing. I have a back button but I won't need that if I want to maintain the original page in the background. Instead I will use a close button.
I am building a CMS and will have an Image browser built with it. When articles are added the will be able to open up the image browser when they find the image they want to insert I would like to send it(and ID from my database) into that textarea where the article is in(in the main window).

I'm creating a Pizza order form. Part of my project includes the ability to print a receipt which I have created successfully as a pop-up window; however, I have the window.print() function in that part of the code and it will not print the pop-up receipt, but rather the main window. Code:
I need a script that will open a new window (popup / new link) in a specific size, but will also close the old window (where the popup came from). I know the popup window is easy but finding a work-able close window script as the new window is opened is impossible!!
I have an HTML page where I am opening a child window using window.open. the child window is something like yahoo.com. I want to refresh the parent window when the child window is closed.
I'm trying to reload a frame from a pop-up, but really cannot figure this out.
Within my index.htm file, I make a link to call a pop-up frame with a javascript function that calls the following code from an external javascript source file, dynamically created with PHP...
I have one page with<input id="calendar" name="calendar" value="" /> <a href="open popup">...</a>The popup opens page with calendar days. Every day is<a href="javascript: setDate('2009-02-26')">26</a>What to insert in the setDate() function to return the selected date to "calendar" input field, wich is in the other (main window), not in the popup?
I am very new at this - and have found code everywhere for pop ups and popunders, but I need both in the same place. So - I am on a main page with a link. If the user clicks the link they get a popup window (it is a specific url). When the user exits out of the popup, I want the popunder to go under the main window they were looking at (not the popup window)
If I am in my main window, I have an href link to click for the popup.html window. This works fine, and I tried to put the code into the popup.html to load the popunder upon exit. What a disaster. It loads on TOP of the main window because of course it is trying to popunder the popup.
Focus is never returned to the main window. Is there any one that has any ideas on how to do this? I have looked at it for days and cannot figure it out - but like I said, I am very, very new at javascript.
I'm having a problem rewriting a window with a popup I made. I'm using Debian Woody with Mozilla 1.0. I can make the popups, but I cannot rewrite the original window with the new information gathered from the popup. Can someone please make some suggestions. I've got most of my information from an old copy of the Rhino book.
I have a simple page on my freebie account site that opens a popup window running index.asp on another site of mine. The code on the freebie hosted server is below. What I'd like to do is have the freebie hosted page shut down once it's opened up the child window.
I have two PHP scripts. The popup script (calendar.php) is linked from the main navigation of the website. When it is clicked, the calendar popups up and the dates are linked. For example; the 24th July 2004 would read: events.php?day=24&month=7&year=2004
However, I require this information to be passed back to the MAIN window so that it can be displayed in a full screen.
