I'm going to need you to be a little more specific than "it's not working either". What exactly are you expecting to happen which you are not seeing?
Does the opener window refresh? Does the popup close? Did you alert the value to see if it was what you expected? Did you dump the url on the parent? Did you spell your form name correctly? Did you make your names case-sensitive? Is there a JavaScript error appearing? If so, what does it say? What line number? Does the rain in Spain REALLY stay mainly on the plains? :) ~Brad -----Original Message----- From: Ken [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 26, 2006 11:14 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: form target Thanks guys. However, instead of passing the variable through a form variable, i decided to send it in the url. But its not working either. Here's my code. Please tell whats wrong in it: <form name="popupform"> 1 <input type="radio" name="resid" value="1" checked="checked" /><br /> 2 <input type="radio" name="resid" value="2" /><br /> 3 <input type="radio" name="resid" value="3" /> <br /> <br /> <input type="button" onClick="window.opener.document.location.href='parent.cfm?id=' & document.forms.popupform.resid.value; self.close();" value="Submit"> </form> Thanks, Ken On 10/26/06, Bobby Hartsfield <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Maybe I'M the one who should have been a little clearer.
