Submit to Parent from the child

[madura12]

hi all,

A parent window has openned a child window using "window.open()".
can i submit/reload the Parent window from the child window.
The important point here i do not want to call any parent's function from the child (like opner.parentReload(), if parentReload() is defined in parent - i don't wnat this).

Because the parent and child are in differnt domain say one is in "Yahoo.com" and other window is in "hotmail.com", so i am not able to access "opener" property

if any one have done it b4 let me know, that would be great help to me

I understand that you are openning a new page into somethig that you called parent window, If it is in this way you can come back using window.location(URL) and using the name of the parent you reload it

fine, but when i use window.location the page will get loaded in the child window not in the parent

Are you sure you can't use opener? I would have thought, being a window type property it would be independant of the url loaded? Since the new window was opened from the old window, not document, object?

Oh, I just read your other post, I see your dilemma! "Alright whatever man, I'll hook up the hair, but I aint touchin the ring though...Cause I'm still a pla--yer"

hi all,
Is that possible if they are in same DOMAIN but from different server. By this i mean parent will be loaded from

http://server1.help.com

and child will come from

http://server2.help.com

. (here the domain is same .help.com)

- spa
