Hi, I have a simple problem that doesn't seem to have an easy solution. I
have a popup used in many places in the application. At the top of the page,
there is a link to switch between two views of the data. And in both views,
I need a reference to the opener window. The problem is... once I change
view, window.opener loose it's reference. How can I work-around that?
Since that popup is an utility used in many places, I must not have to
modify all the pages using it.
Thanks for your help!

Launch it from a 'hidden' frame (frameset of two frames with a width set
to * and 100%).

What will it change?
I'm a bit confused, are you talking about adding a frame (or iframe) to the
popup?

You have to make a master frameset with a 100% height frame where all
your stuff wil happen (like the window with the pages right now).
The popup opens from the other frame. Now you can communicate from the
100% frame to the hidden frame and from the hidden frame you can
communicate with the popup.
Maybe you can even access the popup straight away with
parent.window["HiddenFrameNam e"].WindowOpener
WindowOpener is defined in the hidden frame JavaScript like
WindowOpener=wi ndow.open("MyPo pup.aspx","bla" ,"width=200, height="200");
I do not guarantee that you the above code is the working way, it meant
to be a idea which direction to search for a solution.
//Rutger
Oh. There's a detail I haven't explained clearly. It is the popup who switch
to another page, not the parent window. And it is the popup who needs to
access the parent.

Still use the hidden vframe but in this case you can use it as a buffer.
Open the popup whenever you want, do the things with the pop you want,
store the values that you need later on in the hidden frame (using input
fields pr something like that).
Now you can close the popup, navigate in the main frame and when needed,
access the values in the hidden frame with JavaScript.
Question: why not use the Session object?

Hi,
Does anyone here know of a way of tracking the window that launched a popup
window besides using window.opener? The problem i'm having is that the
popup window submits a form within itself before wanting to return the data
to the launching page, and unfortunately in IE5 window.opener is undefined
after the form is submitted, so i need some sort of workaround to make the
page work in IE5.
Thanks,

I'm working on an asp.net site and am trying to implement a popup help
window. I want the window to close when the user advances to the next page
in our application. The thing is, I'm doing this on a component basis and I
don't have access to the body tag from within my help component, so I can't
add the onunload tag. Is there some other way of achieving what I want? Can
I add an eventhandler to the body tag through javascript?
Thanks,

Is there a way to duplicate this in from the popup window.

I'm running a script that opens a popup window (which is basically a

My popup form looks like this:
