You can't.
What runs on the client in the browser has to be "passed back" to the server.
Here's one way to pass that value:
<FORM NAME="MyForm">
<INPUT VALUE="" NAME="CS_JS_Val">
<SCRIPT><!--
document.MyForm.CS_JS_Val.value = opener.document.hedit.RefNum.value;
// -->
</SCRIPT>
When the form was submitted you would have the value in Tango as <@ARG CS_JS_Val>
which you could assign to a Tango variable if needed.

Subject: Witango-Talk: JavaScript question
On a page opened in a child window, I have
<SCRIPT>
document.writeln(opener.document.hedit.RefNum.value);
</SCRIPT>
which correctly displays the value on the screen.
How can I assign this value to a local variable?
<@SCRIPT
EXPR="server.setVariable('vRefNum',opener.document.hedit.RefNum.value,'local
');">
does not work.
Thanks,
Chuck Lockwood
