It is an indexed link. I already know how to get the indexed link to include the part number.
What I want to do is: This link should point to an action class, say "partInfo.do", which retrieves the complete information about that part and puts it into an ActionForm and then forwards to a JSP in a "NEW" window(with no location bar,no tool bar,etc.)on top of the originator window. User submits to this ActionForm have to follow the normal ActionForm features, i.e., bring back the part form screen in case of actionerrors. And If the update is successful then the part changes are to be saved to the database and the popup window closed and user allowed to continue work on the originator window Until the user has successfully updated the data and the popup window is closed, he/she should not be able to get to the originator form. I hope someone has handle this situation and can help me. -Nimmi -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, October 22, 2001 3:27 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: How to handle a PopUp Form from another Form? Perhaps you can use a indexed link which brings up the data in the popup form. As for the second part, could you use javascript onload function in the original page, which checks to see if popup exists, and if it does puts focus back on it?

Hi, I am looking for suggestions on how to handle this situation: I have a grid form (i.e., a form with tabular data). One of the columns of this tabular data is "PartNumber" which when clicked on a row should popup a form in a new window bringing up all the information about this part, e.g., description, dimensions,price, etc. from the database and the user should be able to modify this part data. 1.The popup form has to be just another ActionForm where the control returns to the form if any validation errors encountered. 2. The user should not be able to go back to the Originator form until done with the popup form. Thanks. -Nimmi
