Passing parameters between windows

Hello
My problem is this

Window 1:
newWin = window.open("http://1.1.1.1/....","winName",...);
This opens a new window from a server

function displayResp(obj)
{
var x = obj.var1;
}
This gives access to a variable updated by the server window

Server window:
function respObj()
{
this.var1 = 1;
}
newWin.displayResp(respObj);

This declares a new object respObj with a member var1

The problem:
I need to display var1 in window 1 but the server window does not recognize
newWin

Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? How can I fix it?

Welcome to The Scripts!

Use window.opener. See this page.

10x for the reply

opener does not help me because Window1 is opened on my local pc and Server window contains a page from the server. Window1 is from domain A and Server window is from domain B and you cannot update parameters between them.

I also tried to change the server window to contain a form and submit it with action="window1". The problem with that is that it opens a new "window1" alogn with the first one and I need the data to be in the first window1

I'm desperate

Hello

My problem is this

I have a mainWin.html that has two frames (nav and content)

mainWin and its frame are on my local pc and run from there

content frame is used to display pages and let a user set parameters and display results

For example one of the pages I run in content is called a.html, which lets the user select something and when clicking on a button it opens a new window (window.open(http://1.1.1.1,...). The new window is from a remote machine (different domain then my pc)

Because mainWin.html and the server page run from different domains I cannot update content directly with the information from the server page

So ...

The server page looks something like

<BODY ONLOAD="javascript:form1.submit()">
<FORM NAME="form1" ACTION="a.html" TARGET="content">
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="resp" VALUE="1">
</FORM>
</BODY>

This gives me a.html in the content frame but location.search is empty. I expected it to be ?resp=1

If the server page does not have the TARGET part then a new a.html is opened with the expected location.search

Can someone help and tell me how I can do that?

10x in advance

try the following for Server window:
function respObj()
{
this.var1 = 1;
}
theObj = eval (new respObj());
newWin.displayResp(theObj);

newWin is declared in window1, so use newWin which will give you access to the object. From that, you should be able to access the variable.
