returning data to a page from a popup

[tsk]

Hi <br>I am wondering if it is possible to send data collected from one popup page to a parent window. Perhaps some example sites would be helpful if you could point them out ..<br>Thanks<br>

I'm pretty sure you can use <FONT FACE=monospace>parent</font>, but I haven't tried anything like that.&nbsp;&nbsp;You could also try giving the parent a name in the body using the <FONT FACE=monospace>id</font> attribute. <p>REH<br><a href=mailto:hawkdogg@crosswinds.net>hawkdogg@crosswinds.net</a><br><a href=
