View 2 Replies View RelatedIn 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.
I am opening a pop up in a new window (window.open) . I have no control on the code of the pop up. Its a third party pop up (twitter). Now that generates a callback url and I can specify that.My problem is the callback page is loaded on the pop up window. I want that window to close and have the call back page loaded on the parent window.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI would like to have a main form (written in PHP) that has a "lookup" button next to a text field. When the user clicks "lookup", it should open a new window that lets them search (child.page1). When they enter a name or DOB into the search form, it submits the form through PHP (via POST), to a results page (child.page2). This displays all persons in the database which have a name or DOB == to the search term(s), with a checkbox next to each match. They click the checkbox (or alternenatively, a link), and return the checkbox value to the main window.
I have everything working right now, except that (child.page2) doesn't recognize the main window. If the data is entered on (child.page1), it works fine. I'm not very familiar with javascript.. is this even possible? I've considered using frames, to keep the parent-child relationship evident to the computer, but figured I'd check to see if there's an easier way.
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.

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'm having trouble with Safari. After i close a popup it does not focus on the parent window. I have been looking around and i think its this sort of thing i need 'javascript:window.opener.focus()" target="_self"' but tbh i'm not in anyway a javascript whizz, so im a little confused.

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?
