why not use "target" in the form of the main window...
eg. using the javascript open a blank window
then submit the form to the new window. an u can get the data in the new
window using the request object..
the code
function OnclickOfButtonopenPopup()
{
var win = window.open('' , "nameof_window" , "all your properties");
// name of the window should be same
document.form1.target = "nameof_window";
document.form1.submit();
}
in the form of the main window write
<input type =button name ="open" value = "as you like" onclick =
"OnclickOfButtonopenPopup()" >
do let me know the results.
Cheers
