I'm pretty sure you can do it:

  var newwin=window.open("a.html?Name=" + namVal);

No, you can't do it that way. But you could create an otherwise unused
hidden form element in your parent document, set it with the value you want
from within your JavaScript function, and then reference that value from the
child window.
