Hi everyone!
I've been directed here from the JavaScript forum having been told the solution to the following problem is server-side - any clues??
Okay so posting form values from one window to another isn't very hard (something like window.opener.forms[0].blahdeblah.value='whatever') but i'm having trouble - my problem seems to be caused by the fact that the page i'm posting from is on a different site to the page that opened it!
i presume this is considered a security issue and previously i had just assumed that this is not possible - but recently i've found that it IS possible (see the 'Postcode Anywhere Website' option on http://www.postcodeanywhere.co.uk - i can't figure out what they're doing to post the information back which is why i'm posting this here).
anyway, i hope someone can help!!
