View 2 RepliesI'm using submodal-1.6 for popup. When the popup closes I wanted parent page to refresh.I've tried the following
window.opener.location.load();
location.load();
window.parent.location.reload();
All works for IE, but when coming to mozilla ,firefox the refresh is a step delayed, i.e when I open my popup to add an itme to my cart on parent page ,for the first time it does not show anything , but when I try to add another item , the first one shows.
I have a couple of utility windows - a calculator and a calendar that popup
from my main window. I would like them to always stay in front of the parent
window until they are shut down with there own close buttons. As it is, when
you click back to the parent window, of course it comes in front of the
child windows. Can I do this?
Put a link on my page that will open an external site (over which I have no control) in a pop-up window. When the user closes the pop-up, I want my original page to redirect to another page. The difficulty I'm having is that I can't add any code to the page in the pop-up as it's not my site.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'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.
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.
Is anyone able to advise. As the main page is dynamic, it is not possible to give the page a name.
I have a closed box system which opens an html page. The page closes by the
system. I have access to the html page. I added code to open a child window
from this page. However when the parent window closes, the child closes
too. Is there a way to keep the child window open? Yes keep it orphaned.
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 need to create an application that will open a popup when the user closes a window. I can do that easily via onUnload event of javascript but the catch is that the popup must open only when we close the window and not when we submit a form or click a link on the page.Actually it is a survey which opens only when one closes the window.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI use this code in a popup to refresh the parent browser. It works fine
as long as the user actually clicks on this link but does not work in
cases where the user closes the child popup through the Windows X

I have the need to create a popup after a delay. The problem I'm getting is that the parent page is refreshing automatically from the action of creating the popup. I don't want the parent page to refresh!
This is what I currently have:
$popupScript = '
<script language="JavaScript">
setTimeout("window.open('index.php?do=renew','Popup1','toolbar=0, width=500, height=500')",' . $delay . ');
</script>';
The page is in php, so that's why I have it as a string, which I later pass to a template page.
This would simply be:
<script language="JavaScript">
setTimeout("window.open('index.php?do=renew','Popup1','toolbar=0, width=500, height=500')",6000);
</script>
... if it was placed straight into the HTML. Incidentally, it's included into the HTML HEAD area, not the body, as the original source of the script suggested: [URL]
$delay is the delay before the popup opens, in microseconds (so 6000 would be 6 seconds).
What can I do to have the same delayed auto-popup functionality, but without it automatically refreshing the parent page where the above code resides?
As some background to what I'm achieving: The issue with not wanting the parent page to refresh is that each time it does, the login session gets extended. The popup itself (which I already have working ok) provides a 'continue working' function, or close and refresh the parent is nothing has been done after a short period.
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 1 Replies View RelatedI have a main window, in this main window, I have just a bunch of table rows (pulled from a database) that have 'Edit' beside them... If you click 'Edit' it will pull up a seperate window that has the information in an editable format (with forms and such). The user/admin edits the information and clicks 'Submit' it loads up another page in that child window and changes it within the database.. after this has happened, it closes the child window. Now after the child window has closed, I need the parent window to refresh to allow the changes to be viewed.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to (via Javascript) refresh a parent page from a child page.
I have an app that displays a list of items that the user has authority to
change. If the user selects one of the items, another window is opened
containing the details of the item. If the user changes any of the details
of the item I'd like to refresh the original (list) page.
Is it possible to refresh a parent browser window when a "child"
browser window has been closed using the [X] button in the upper right
corner of the browser?
When I refer to child window, I mean that a link within a "parent" window has opened a new browser window.
The crux of the problem is I only know if the popup *has been* opened,
but not if it *is* open. Therefore, the script doesn't know whether to
simply refocus, or whether to popup a fresh window.
Are these the only solutions?
* handle onerror in some creative way
* hidden frames
BTW, I do have the luxury of ignoring non IE 5.5+ browsers on this
project..
I have a normal web page that contains a link.
When the link is pressed a javascript popup window occurs asking the user for a choice.
The popup window then closes and I want also for the original page to be refreshed.
So how do I do the refreshing is my question.
I realise the reload command is relevant, but am unsure on how to tell the pop up window to refresh the original page.
I was curious if such a thing is possible, I've seen it done before, but not exactly sure how that would work. Would it have something to do with the window.close (); function?

I need the most efficient way of passing a variable from a parent window to a popup window.The reason i say "most efficient" is because i currently do it like this from the parent:[code]But this is inefficient because at times it randomly alerts "undefinded".Anyways, can someone tell me a more fail safe way to pass a var to a popup so that i will be able to access it 100% correctly.
how I can populate the value of an input field on a parent window from a selected item (of a form - listmenu) on a pop-up window? Basically, I need to pass the value of one form to another form located on a different page...
View 1 Replies View RelatedWondering how one would go about creating a popup window that would exactly copy the size & location of the parent window. I am guessing that you would combine two functions, one to assign size & location of parent window to JS variables; the next to open the popup incorporating
those variables. I'm sure i can find snippets on the web. would there be a simpler way?
