Hi there,

Let's say I have a pop-up window named commPilot, and inside this window there is a text field called DialedNumber and a Button named Dial.
How can I access/reference this form from another browser window (not the caller/opener), so I can pass values and events to it?
Thanks.
Rafael
 

I don't believe that you can access an arbitrary window from another window that was not the opener of the arbitrary window you are trying to access.

Try this:
Code:
var commPilot=window.open("","commPilot");
commPilot.document.formName.fieldName.value="hi!";
