Dear all,
David is right. Get is limited to 256 chars (?) and not that nice. The
prototype popup window is named a frame in Firefox. So it must be
possible to be accessed normally? Sorry folks I am not that firm in
js. But I am shure there is an option. The "normal" window.open has no
effects like prototype. There are several other scripts, which are
already using prototype. Till now it was OK to support just an id.
But the values put in the form must be possible to use.
e.g.
name: textfield: Peter Rover
subject: spring time
text: blah, blah.....
With onclick I opened the prototype window and wanted the values
(peter Rover, spring time, and blah) within the prototype window.
Might sessions be an option? I have no idea how. With php I cannot
access the values, because they are not yet put in, when the site is
loaded. I looking for sth like var subject =
parent.getelementbyid('subject').value..
Hope its clearer now!
Best
