Need to update 2 different servers

[sknyppy]

I have an add-event button that when clicked opens a new window with a few fields to fill out.

After hitting the submit button in the popup
I need to do the following:
1) Insert the information on the current server.
2) Insert the information on a remote server.
3) Refresh the parent window.
4) Close the child window.

This is the code I using now but it doesn't refresh the parent window.

--------------
<%
qIncident = &quot;INSERT INTO myTable(Fields) Values(Values)&quot;
adoDataConn.Execute(qIncident)

qSIncident = &quot;SELECT myField FROM myTable&quot;
SET EventID = adoDataConn.Execute(qIncident)

myString = &quot;

http://remoteserver/InetUpdate.asp?Opt=IA&EventID=&quot;&EventID(&quot;EventID&quot;)

Response.Redirect(myString)
%>

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot; TYPE=&quot;text/javascript&quot;>
opener.location.reload();
window.close();
</SCRIPT>
--------------

Thanks,
Dave

Try this

window.opener.location.reload(true)

You problem is that you are performing the redirect before the javascript, and as the redirect inserts a 302 into the header of the document it never makes it to the body where it can execute your javascript.

A better idea is to write something like this:-

<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=&quot;JavaScript&quot; TYPE=&quot;text/javascript&quot;>
opener.location.reload();
location.href='<%=myString%>'
</SCRIPT>

and then have the window.close() on the remoteserver/inetupdate site.

Alternatively, if you're running under w2k then instead of response.redirect, use server.execute, which will execute the required page and then return control to your asp.

If this does not work then use the xmlhttp object to POST to the remote page, and read back the response, before performing your javascript.
