Was wondering if this is allowed:
window.parent.location = "/cgi-bin/transList.cgi"

I want to load the page from cgi when the user presses a button. I know I can specify it on the action attribute of form tag but I'm calling another cgi on the action.

Is this possible or only the action attribute accepts the "cgi" call??

Thanks.
 

yes, from looking at it. you're just calling a new location, so long as the address is valid.

have you tested it yet?
