when a form is submitted from the main window i want a pop up window
to open from the onclick event. i have that working, now how can i
close the pop up window from the main window after the main window
finishes loading? i've been racking my brain on this for the last two
days. here is the code for the parent window that i have been testing
with.
testfoo.htm is just a blank html page used for testing.
<head>
<title>Personne l Information</title>
<script language="javas cript" type="text/javascript">
var newWindow;
//alert(newWindow + " page load");
function openDialogWin() {
var height = "300";
var width = "500";
var x = (screen.width - width) / 2;
var y = (screen.height - height) / 2;
var Name = window.name;
//alert(height + ", " + width);
features = "height=" + height + ",width=" + width + ",left="
+ x + ",top=" + y;
features += ",menubar=no,re sizable=no,titl ebar=no,scrollb ars=no,status=n o,toolbar=no,me nubar=no,locati on=no";
var newWindow = window.open(une scape("/testfoo.htm"),
"newWindow" , features);
//alert(newWindow .name + " in openDialogWin") ;
return newWindow;
}
function closeDialogWin( ) {
if (newWindow && !newWindow.clos ed)
newWindow.close ();
}
</script>
</head>
<body onLoad="closeDi alogWin();">
<form method="post">
<input type="submit" name="foo" value="Submit"
onclick="openDi alogWin();">
</form>
</body>
</html>
sorry about the formatting... it looks ok in the editing window. if
anyone can clue me in on how to format the code for the boards, i'll
do my best to comply.
thanks in advance

well, i couldn't find any better solution and since i've been wracking
my brain over this since last wednesday, i took the easy way out and am
faking disabling the button. i put the original submit buttons inside of
a span with an id of "able" and created identical dummy buttons inside
of a span called "disabled". when one of the original buttons is
clicked, it hides "able" and displays "disabled". and since this is done
on the client side, the change is instant in their browser (as far as i
know). here is the code i used:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled </title>
<script language="JavaS cript">
function bigFake() {
able.style.disp lay = "none";
disabled.style. display = "";
}
</script>
you should test that in something besides IE....

This will fail in NN/Moz.
You forgot document.getEle mentById("able" ) syntax is required in non-IE
browsers. Only IE knows that shortcut you used.
NN says "able is not defined".

Hi Guys
Wonder if someone can help me with this.
I have a form where a user clicks a button which gives them a pop up windows
to allow them to add the data. The user adds the data and click save. The
pop window closes and refreshs the parent window to allow the entered data
to be displayed.
It was all working okay until couple of days back when it stopped.

I have a subwindow hich displays a grid. When the user selects a row from

Normally I would do this in javascript, but I cannot find any client side

It works on Konquerer though. I remember it works on IE too.
I've tried window.close() too. Doesn't work on Firefox also.
I've also tried to create a function. It doesnt work on Firefox also.
Bottomline is: Firefox doesn't accept window.close() or self.close()?
Are there ways to rectify the issue?
Please advise.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
