New Member

you can do it using Cookie ...... but the problem is you can't store Array in Cookie ..... you have to store it as String

How can you assign an array to a hidden field?
It is not possible.
You can store the values in a hidden field something like this.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

<input type="hidden" id = "hdnID">

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
var hdn = document.getElementById('hdnID');

var array_values = "";

var separator = "/*the separator character so that it does not occur in your array values*/";

var array_obj = /*this is your array object*/ ;

for(var i = 0;i<array_obj.length-1;i++) array_values += array_obj[i] + separator;

array_values += array_obj[i];

/*now write a code for retrieving the values from your hidden field ...using String.split method*/

Folks, I'm working on a contact name/address database whereby a slimed down list is shown in the main window.

One solution I came up with was quite simple; open the "new" window, giving you a reference to the object, then use window.history.back() to
