try var newwin=window.open("a.html?Name="+namVal); -----Original Message----- From: Jacob Wilson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 29, 2003 4:37 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: javascript question...
Hi... Is it possible to send a value of a form element from the parent window to the child window like this??? <script> function go() { var namVal = document.fm1.txtName.value; var newwin=window.open("a.html?Name=namVal"); } </script> <form name=fm1 onSubmit="go()"> <input type=text name=txtName > <input type=submit value=go> </form> The above does not work... it will give me 'namVal' as the value rather than the actual typed in value when I try to get request.getParameter.... How can I achieve this functionality??? I need to pass a form element value when opening a new window. This value is essential at this point coz I perform an action based on this value and then bring the pop up page.... Suggestions requested please... Thanks!
