submit form from popup window to parent window
Hi all, I have a form that appears in a popup window (created via a call to IE's showModalDialog()), that I would like to submit back to the parent window. The target attribute on the html:form tag only seems to allow you to specify which frame you want to submit to, not which window. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks, Jeff.

Jeff, See the documentation for window.opener. opener is a reference to the spawning window from the popup.

RE: submit form from popup window to parent window
Mark, Thanks for your help. In looking for documentation on window.opener I came across a couple of articles/posts that led me to my solution. What I do is use window.open() instead of showModalDialog() to create the popup. This allows me to submit my struts form to the popup window (I had a problem doing this in a popup created by showModalDialog(). The action associated with the form does some processing then forwards to a page that has javascript in the head section that refreshes the parent (window.opener.location.href = window.opener.location) and then closes the popup window (self.close()). The refreshed parent window then displays the updated content created by the popup window. Thanks, Jeff.
