Re: [PHP] Reloading a specific window

2003-10-03 Thread Marek Kilimajer 
1. you have the main window.
2. user clicks ADD, new windows pops up
3. user enters data into the new window, submits
4. action.php updates database and outputs:
script language=javascript
document.window.opener.reload()
self.close();
/script
noscriptClose this window and reoad the main window/noscript
   together with all necessery html stuff

 /script
OUTPUT;
 echo $ostr;
 //header(Location: .$_POST['CallingScript'].?ID=.$_POST['ID']);
 exit;
}
several things happen: the database update does not happen, the mainwindow
does not reload, and my form disappears from the popup frame and this frame
is blank.
I am probably doing something very stupid.

I have a main window which I will refer to as mainwindow
(window.name='mainwindow' in the onload event). The script loaded into
it is

mainListing.php. From mainListing.php I popup another window, with a
form

and a save button. The form's action is action.php

In action.php I update the database and then would like to: (1) refresh
mainwindow so it reflects the database changes, and (2) close the popup
window.
I have been reading, tweaking, trying different things but nothing is
working. Currently, the action script does:
...
elseif (isset($_POST['btnSave']))
{
  .. update the database, then ...
   header(Location: .$_POST['CallingScript'].?ID=.$_POST['ID']);
   exit;
}
...
This reloads the popup window, and then I have a close button to close
the

popup. Then I have to refresh the browser window manually to see the
updated

table from the database. Can I get some advice on how to accomplish (1)
and

(2) above?

Many thanks,

Rich
