Just to clarify, I think this is because "opener" is its own top-level object, a sibling of "window" rather than a child. If you have "window" there, it will look for "opener" in the current window rather than at the top level. Not sure if I have the nomenclature correct but you get the idea. Also what Charlie said is true, you have to use "window.open" when you open your window originally. -- Josh ----- Original Message ----- From: "Josh Nathanson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2007 9:58 AM Subject: Re: JS Issue > Try dropping "window" from "window.opener.location.href" - I think you > just > need "opener.location.href". > > -- Josh > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Bruce Sorge" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "CF-Talk" <[email protected]> > Sent: Thursday, April 05, 2007 9:42 AM > Subject: SOT: JS Issue > > >>I have a very simple piece of JS: >> >> <SCRIPT language=JavaScript> >> <!-- >> function win(){ >> window.opener.location.href="AddCandidate.cfm"; >> self.close(); >> //--> >> } >> </SCRIPT> >> >> When I click on the button with the onClick event: >> >> <input type="button" name="back" value="Back To Previous Page" >> onClick="win();" /> >> >> I get the message window.opener.location is null or not an object. >> >> I also tried to put single quotes on the window.opener >> ('AddCandidate.cfm'). >> >> I googled it and the answers I found did not seem to help. >> >> Thanks, >> >> -- >> Bruce Sorge >> >> "I'm a mawg: half man, half dog.
