I made up a working example of this.
I love Javascript DOM! =)
This first page would be your parent window. It contains a form with a text box.
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Form with Popup Example</h1>
<p><a href="#" onclick="javascript:window.open('pop.htm','mypop','width=15 0,height=210');">Popup Window</a></p>
<form>
<input type="text" name="input1" /><br/>
<input type="submit" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
This second page would be your popup window. I made it have a link which sets the text directly. You may want the text to come from a Form element in the popup window, but I assume you are capable of doing that yourself.
I've named this pop.htm, if yuo name it something different, be sure to change the window.open command in the parent window.
Code:
<html>
<head>
<title>Page</title>
<script>
function setParentText(str) {
window.opener.document.bgColor = "beige";
window.opener.document.forms[0].elements[0].value = str + '';
window.opener.restart();
//window.close();
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Popup Form</h1>
<a href="#" onclick="javascript:setParentText('Hello world');">Click here to set the text</a>
</body>
</html>
