Fill parent text box from popup

Hello everyone!

I currently have code that will generate a random input into a text box within the same window upon a button click. Is there a way I can make this code populate a text box on a parent window if the code is contained within a popup? The program I'm using is encrypted with only limited access to template files or else I'd just include the code on the page itself.

Here is my current code:

Code:

$(function() { $('#genID').click(function() { var SystemID = ""; var possible = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"; for (var i = 0; i < 8; i++) SystemID += possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length)); $('input[name="ID"]').val(SystemID); }); });

Here's the whole page actually. This text box is the one that it generates to, but I'd rather it generate to a parent box.

Code:

<html> <head> <script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script> <body> <script> $(function() { $('#genID').click(function() { var SystemID = ""; var possible = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789"; for (var i = 0; i < 8; i++) SystemID += possible.charAt(Math.floor(Math.random() * possible.length)); $('input[name="ID"]').val(SystemID); }); }); </script> <input name="ID" type="text" id="id" onClick="this.select();" readonly="readonly"> <button id="genID">Generate System ID</button> </body> </html>
