Yes, the Form object has a Target attribute. (i.e. <form action="mypage.cfm" target="_top">)
If needed, I think you can set the target dynamically through JS document.forms[0].target="MainWindow"; (I could be wrong on this though... couldn't find confirmation in my JS book.) Hope that helps.

I am not worried about form field access. I am more worried about posting back to that original page and closing the current window (hence the window.close()) Is there a target attribute?
