Hello together,

i've got a script that lists a directory tree. What i want is, to put this directory tree in a popup.

When selecting an Entry within the popup i like to pass the value of an text field in the windows, the popup was called from.

The script is already working, but at the moment started with the other page in a 2-section-divided frame. So what i need to know:

How can i change the value from textfield "txt2" within the base-site out of to popup to any value?

Thank a lot

From your text not sure which way your going; parent->child
or child->parent. Here's both ways..

Parent

<script type="text/javascript">
var newWin="";

function setHidden(val) {
document.forms[0].hide1.value = val;

if (val == "Y")
alert("Submit Form");
else
alert("Did not agree");
}

function getRadioValue(name) {
var s = "script";
newWin = window.open('agree.htm','','top=150,left=150,width=325,height=300');
}

function copyToChild(val) {
if (!newWin.closed && !newWin == "") {
newWin.document.forms[0].popField1.value = val;
}
}
</script>

<form action="#">
<input type="hidden" name="hide1" />

<p>
<input type="text" name="field1" size="20" onBlur="copyToChild(this.value)" />
</p>

<p style="text-align: center;">
<input type="button" value="Submit" onClick="getRadioValue('Agreement Window')" />
</p>
</form>

Child
