I have a three page form, and I want each page to open in the same window, but when I use "location.href" it won't pass the data entered in page 1 to page 2, or page 1 & 2 to page 3. Anyone know how to make BOTH of these things (passing data AND opening in the same window) work at the same time? Here's my sample code (just 2 pages):
Page1.htm:
Page2.htm
When I change:
to:
it will open page2.htm in the same window as page1.htm was, but it doesn't pass the data, and it gives an "'opener document' is null or not an object" error. Please help!
Page1.htm:
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>New User Request</title>
<script language="JavaScript">
function opwin(url) {
nwwin = window.open(url);
}
var prevRole = "";
function showRole(currRole){
if (prevRole != ""){document.getElementById(prevRole).style.display='none'}
if (currRole != 0)
{document.getElementById(currRole).style.display='inline';
prevRole=currRole}
}
function disableRoles(isForm){
selectedRole = isForm.Department.selectedIndex;
if (selectedRole == 1)
{
document.getElementById('D101').disabled = true;
document.getElementById('D110').disabled = true;
return true;
}
if (selectedRole == 2)
{
document.getElementById('D100').disabled = true;
document.getElementById('D110').disabled = true;
return true;
}
if (selectedRole == 3)
{
document.getElementById('D100').disabled = true;
document.getElementById('D101').disabled = true;
return true;
}
else {
alert('Please choose a department');
return false;
}
}
</script>
