opener is not getting form value...

[ralph4208w]

Hi,

I currently have window "A" use javascript's statement "window.open" to create a new window "B".

Within window B, if I use javascript...alert("some info=" + window.opener );" then I receive an alert box that says "some info[object]"...and this is a good sign (I think).

My problem: when I try to use javascript...
alert("b" + window.opener.document.myForm.myTextArea.value );
the javascript just stops working. No error message. No data. Nothing.

Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. I really want to have this done today, and I'm stuck on simply grabbing the value of a form field from the parent window.

Thanks in advance!

a little correction. It is displaying an error message "Access denied". The two web pages are on the same web site, and even within the same directory.

Any ideas?
