Passing value from one page textbox to another page textbox
Hi,
I've two pages(forms), page2 pops up when we click on page1 form button A or B. On page 2, user can only fills out the TextBox 1 or TextBox 2.
After submitting the Page2 Form, I want to pass the value of Page2 Textbox 1 or 2 to populate on Page1 Textbox A or B(if user click on Button A, value should go to Page1, TextBox A).
Code of page is here 1
<script type="text/javascript">
function open_window() {
window.open('page2.htm',''
}
</script>
<form>
<table width="1023" align="center">
<tr>
<td colspan="2" bgcolor="#E9E9E9">TextBox A</td>
<td bgcolor="#E9E9E9">TextBox B</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" bgcolor="#E9E9E9">A.
<input type="text" name="Page1_TxtA" id="Page1_TxtA" value="" size="20" maxlength="40" ></td>
<td bgcolor="#E9E9E9">
<input type="button" name="Page1_BtnA" value="Button A" onClick="open_window()"/>
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td colspan="2" bgcolor="#E9E9E9">B.
<cfinput type="text" name="Page1_TxtB" id="Page1_TxtB" value="" size="20" maxlength="40" ></td>
<td bgcolor="#E9E9E9">
<input type="button" name="Page1_BtnB" value="Button B" onClick="open_window()"/>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
Page 2 code is here:
<script type="text/javascript">
function close_window() {
window.close();
}
</script>
<form name="form1">
<table width="576" border="1">
<tr>
<td width="273">TEXTBOX 1</td>
<td width="485">TEXTBOX 2</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input type="text" name="Page2_Txt1" id="Page2_Txt1" /></td>
<td><input type="text" name="Page2_Txt2" id="Page2_Txt2" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td> </td>
<td><input TYPE="BUTTON" name="npage" VALUE="Display" onClick="close_window();">
</tr>
</table>
</form>
any help, comment or suggestion regarding this problem, would be deeply appreciated.

Hi,
After adding the function as under:
function close_window() {
opener.document.getElement
opener.document.getElement
window.close();
}
works fine, but when i pass the value in TextBox B after filling TextBox A, it clears TextBox A. Any comments regarding this issue???

@chaituu sorry, I did'nt refresh before post my pages
@s_hausen have a look to the code I provided to you.?
I do some modification in your original code :
window.open('page22.html?target='+encodeURI(target

}
and we use these parameter to update the right textbox with the right child textbox : opener.document.getElement
function close_window() {
opener.document.getElementById( gup("target") ).value = document.getElementById( gup("source") ).value;
window.close();
}

Guys,
I am very new in web programming, so please be patient with me. After updating the code of page2, submit button doesn't work, which is as under:
function close_window() {
opener.document.getElement
window.close();
}
and only updating page 1 code as under:
function open_window(target, source) {
window.open('page22.html?t
}
still giving me the same result. textbox A goes clear when values pass into textBox B.
