Oh I did a new discover. The form itself is being posted. In my case after the form submission, the input values should be recorded into a cookie, and they are, in fact, being recorded. However, the popup is not being refreshed which causes the impression of the form not being send.
Instead of the default behavior - POST information and refresh the page - it's simply posting it without refresh. So the user needs to submit the form (to save the settings into a cookie) and in order to see changes based on the saved information, he needs also to click twice in the browser action: one to close the popup, and another time to re-open it , which is going to make a new check and retrieve information based on the newest settings. Is it possible to refresh the content of the opened popup? Or in order to do that I will always need to click and open again, creating a new request? It seems I'm not able to put an javascript alert or manipulate somehow the popup. It simply doesn't return anything. On Oct 29, 6:38 pm, Nicholas Pufal <[email protected]> wrote: > Nothing happens.
