referencing an existing window

19
me again

ok this is probably not possible...

but let's say i have an explorer window open to www.google.com

is there any way to reference that browser window...that particular instance?

i've figured out how to have a parent window spawn a child window, have data entered into child window and then submit the data back to the parent window. communicating from parent to parent would be the missing piece and i have a sinking feeling that i about to hit a dead end because of security features. =/

there wouldn't be a real way that comes to my mind.
