open a window in parent frame - html help - GoFuckYourself.com

dickblast · 11-01-2002, 08:01 PM

i need to have a link from a popup open in the PARENT window (meaning the window that originally created the popup) and close the popup. i need whatever java/html is needed 2 make this happen (or related links plz.)

thx in advance

grumpy · 11-01-2002, 08:09 PM

if browser A opens a popup...browser A has full controll over the popup.
The popup can never have control over the parent!!

so if you do tmpw=window.open(.......)
then you can do
from the parent

tmpw.window.close or tmpw.document.url=

I dont know exactly what you want but i hope it makes sense,

not true... the popup can indeed control the parent.

grumpy · 11-01-2002, 08:54 PM

dickblast · 11-01-2002, 08:54 PM

Amputate Your Head · 11-01-2002, 08:56 PM

it's complicated.... lemme try and put the code together for you....

dickblast · 11-01-2002, 09:04 PM

i found java 2 open the child and keep on top, and pass info, but its via a form (damnit!!!)

no luck finding href code 2 send back 2 the parent as you exit child

dickblast · 11-01-2002, 09:15 PM

perfect! that is exactly what i need

*deletes browser cache so IE6 will let him src it*

Amputate Your Head · 11-01-2002, 09:21 PM

okay.... like I said, it's complicated.

1. You need some code in your main parent head, and there's some things you'll need to change in that section of code...

2.then of course, you need the page that you're ultimately sending back to the parent....

3. you need to set your intial link for the popup very specifically.

4. You need to make sure all the paths are set up correctly in all the code in all these files.

5. You need a javascript file that carries the bulk of the code, which will also hafta be modified.

6. you need the popup page.... again, which will need to be modified.

there's basically 4 main files you need to make this work:
Main page
Popup page.
Javascript file.
Final destination page.

Obviously I can't post all that here.... but if you want, I'll send you a zip file, and you can go through all the code and make the changes to fit what you need. Just check out the paths and it should all make sense to you in no time. This one is set up for the popup to carry a video, but you could set it up for practically anything.... put an image on there, or some Flash, or whatever.

yep.... that's basically the same thing grumpy...

grumpy · 11-01-2002, 09:55 PM

self.opener.location =url

so you also have control over self.opener.document

self.opener is the parent

use self.opener in the script on the popup

Hope this helps

I like Iframes

But netscape dont

dickblast · 11-01-2002, 11:01 PM

ok got a prob

it opens a page but im tryin 2 call a cgi in a template

so the way u have it set up it cant call the script and load the content

let me know if i should gfmyself and search html forums

dickblast · 11-01-2002, 11:12 PM

2 clarify a little:

i have to load the javascript inside a cgi, that pops up and reads in a template on queried data

then when closed, close that popup and return the the cgi page that did that

hehe this is getting ridiculous

I havent mixed much Javascript with perl, is the cgi script not printing out the Javascript right? I am not totally sure what your trying to do

I noticed that you strongly not recommend IIcinternet hosting services, did you get fucked over by them? I am curious being that I currently have a server over there

You are using frames in a webpage along with Javacript and cgi perl, there isnt a soul here that can make this work without admin access or acute information from you
