Parent of Popup

[jayke00]

Hey,

Im just starting to learn JavaScript and have a simple question. I have a link that opens a popup window. In the popup are various choices for the user. I was wondering if anyone knows how to cause the original window to go to a link clicked by the user in the popup, and also close the popup.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks!

Sure thing...
<a href="somepage.htm" onclick="window.opener.location.href=this.href; window.close(); return false;">link</a> should do it for you...
