You can create a global class to keep the values, or you can put these in
the session, so that when the user close the window, those values still
exist

Subject: Closing Windows in the right Sequence
May be I was not clear enough before, I am using JavaScript to open those
windows. They are forms that are being read from an Oracle database. You
have the option to modify the content of those forms.
On the main window, you have a list of products, by clicking on any product,
a window opens up that contains the general info about that product. You can
choose to modify the contents of that window, for example the phone number
of the supplier and then you click on a validate button to write the
modified data back to the data base and the window closes automatically. One
problem that may arise here is if the user decided to close the main window,
before closing the general info window. This will cause data loss. How can I
worn or prevent the user from closing the main window before closing the
child of that window!!
To add to the complexity of things, the general Info child window has a More
Info button that open up yet another (third) child window, and in that
window you can also modify it's contents. So now I need to prevent (or worn)
the users from closing the Main Window or the general Info Window, before
closing the More Info window.
I am not sure if there is a solution for this, especially that we have 'x'
on the right side of the title bar that users find very convenient to shut
down windows by!!!
I've been looking for a solution for this for quite some time, if any one
can suggest a solution it would be greatly appreciated.

Subject: Closing Windows in the right sequence
Happy New Year All,
I am facing a problem with controlling the close of my pop up windows on
the internet. I am opening a sequence of window up to 4 of them, and I must
close them in the reverse sequence of opening them. And I need for this to
work on both IE and Communicator!!
I'm not asking for much, am I. ;-)
Any response that could set me in the right direction would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
