window.opener.forms not working in Firefox.

[Kien]

Hello,

Haven't been back to this group for over 3 years...

I know opening a window is an evil thing, but this is convenient for my
site.
The design is like this
-User clicks a link
-up pops a popup with a SAFileUp form
-user uploads the image
-the ASP script stores the image, returns a script on the popup to
update a form in the parent window with:

opener.document.forms[0].Content.value+='\n<img src=fed/images/" & FName
& ">\n'

This works well on IE but not Firefox (the Content box remains empty).
Please help.
Thanks.

Kien

What does the console have to say?

window.opener

Well, Thanks Rnady but that didn't help.
I think it is a problem with Firefox and textarea.
Yes, I read Martin Honnen's bit about textarea and think he's right.
