Hi,

I have this problem with my code.
The script don't detect the opener windows when the page is launched.
Anyone know what could be the cause? may be I have messed up with the syntax.

This is the syntax for javascript opener.

Code:

window.opener = value             
It is possible to use the following syntax to reach deeper into the 
heritage of the window:

window.opener.opener...
window.opener.document.getElementById("elementID").propertyName = value

This is an example:

Code:

<html><body>
<script language="JavaScript">
    var newWin
    function function1() {
         newWin = window.open("http://www.java2s.com", 
                              "subwindow", 
                              "width=400,height=150, resizable, top=250") 
    } 
    function hi() {
        if (!newWin.closed) {
            alert("The subwindow is closed");
        }
    }
</script>
<p style="text-decoration:underline; 
   cursor:hand;" 
   onClick="function1();">
   Click to open new window
</p>
</body></html>

I am working with javascript opener & having some trouble & my friends told me to convert whitespace to . In this way the browser will be able to request it and the server to understand the request.
Is it helpful to work out with the link?
I have this:

Code:

<a href="javascript:;" onclick=opener.location="hello.php?id=$var">$var</a>

Thanks

Hi I am working with asp.
My problem is that my javascript window.opener works with IE but not in mozilla Firefox, what could be the reason? IS there something I need to add in my code? working with Javascript Debugger extension in Firefox,"window.opener" do not return any value.

Code:

sheetSelector = window.open("http://localhost/MYPRINT/PopUps/PriceSheetSelector.asp" + querystring,"priceSheetTagSelector","height=800,width=925,left=250px");

window.opener.parent.frames.frmAddTag.location = "AddTagFrame.aspx" + tagQueryString;
