Change new window from opening window

Joe Sent Me

I have opened a new window and now want to change something in the
newly opened window. I am doing this.......

<area
href="javascript:tour('newwindow.htm','_blank','sc rollbars=yes,resizable=1,width=780,height=550,top= 0,left=0')"
onclick="javascript:setTimeout('changenewone()', 800)" shape="rect"
coords="9, 29, 44, 69">

<script type="text/javascript" src="id1.js">
function changenewone() {
window.location.newemail1.HideContent('id1');
</script>

I have named the new window "newemail1." I used a time delay hoping
that the new window would have time to open and then the attributes
could be accessed. I'm not targeting the new window correctly, I
suppose. What would be the correct way to do this? I am getting an
"object expected" error. Any help is appreciated.

What is 'tour'? What is 'HideContent'? What is 'newemaill'?

And with the onclick event, you don't need 'javascript:'

How do you reference your new window after you created it?

typically you would do something like:
var someWin = window.open('newwindow.htm', blah, blah, ....)

And then with someWin you can manipulate the window.
