Hello there! Here is my problem... I have a parent window that is populated with information from an Access database using ASP. I used Jsavascript to open a pop up window that again is populated with information from the database. It also gets a user ID from the original form (1st window). My problem is I can't get the data to be automatically refreshed in the parent window. I have to click the refresh button, and that's not what I need.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
 
Here's a FAQ on that very subject --

It's a simple example of two pages that shoot information back and forth --

If it's still not clear after reading it, post back and we'll work it out.

Well, it may take a few minutes to incorporate this into my asp file, but it seems like it might work. Thanks, and as soon as I get it working (or not), I'll let you know!
Thanks!
