I have a frame set that has a top, side, and main fram. The side frame opens a new window, using window.open(...), which needs to send data back to the main window of the frame set. Can this be done and if so how??? Please help.
 
If you're putting in a form field in the main frame it would be:
opener.parent.mainFrameName.document.formName.fieldName.value="whatever";
