function go() {
 
 var namVal = document.fm1.txtName.value;
 var newWinStr = 'a.html?Name='+namVal;

Thanks Narayanan -- I tried this b4, but this will throw an error...
Actually, you need to pass a total string into the open method....

Hi...

Is it possible to send a value of a form element from the parent window to
the child window like this???


function go() {
 var namVal = document.fm1.txtName.value;
 var newwin=window.open("a.html?Name=namVal");
}



 [input] 
 [input] 


The above does not work... it will give me 'namVal' as the value rather than
the actual typed in value when I try to get request.getParameter....

How can I achieve this functionality??? I need to pass a form element value
when opening a new window. This value is essential at this point coz I
perform an action based on this value and then bring the pop up page....

Suggestions requested please...

Thanks!

Jacob
