JavaScript - How To Call Main Window From A Popped Up Window
In my main window, I create a popup window. Is there a way to bring the main window back to the foreground (make the main window the focus window again) from the popup window using JS? Like from a link or a button?
Thanks Similar TutorialsI have the code below in my popup window which currently brings up a blank page in the background as the main window. Instead I want the popup to come up but the original page I left is in the background as the main window. Does anyone know how I can do that with the code I currently have. Code: <html>

<script type="text/javascript">
function poponload()
{
testwindow = window.open("", "mywindow", "location=0,status=0,scrollbars=0,width=350,height=400");
testwindow.moveTo(0, 0);
testwindow.document.write('<h1>Get outta here!</h1><a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="window.opener.history.go(-1); self.close();">Parent back button</a>');
testwindow.focus();
}
</script>
<body onload="javascript: poponload()">

I have created and opened a child window called "checkwin" and have written some data to it. If the data is valid, I want the user to click on the 'CONFIRM' button on the child window, at which time I want the "submit()" function for the form on the parent window to be executed. If the data is invalid the user clicks on 'MODIFY' and I want focus to return to a field on the parent form. However, when I click on the "CONFIRM" or "MODIFY" buttons on the child window, nothing happens. Here is the code: Code: checkwin.document.write("</td></tr><tr><td align='right'><input type='button' value='CONFIRM'
onclick='opener.document.personnel_form.submit()'></td><td></td><td><input type='button' value='MODIFY'
onclick='opener.document.personnel_form.first_name.focus()'></td></tr></table>")
Hi Guys, I have a pop up that opens for a second then hides behind main window for some reason Code: <img src="../../../print_this_page.gif" title="Click To Print This Page" width="64" height="64" onmousedown="MM_openBrWindow('{ads_print_href}?item_id={item_id}','printnew','scrollbars=yes,width=950,height=800')" />
Any ideas what i can add to the code so it stays in top. Works on firefox. Issue is with IE8 Thanks First, apologies I'm a newbie with javascript. Here's the problem: I have javascript in an iframe that controls showing/hiding of divs. This works great, but after the javascript is executed it changes the behavior of anchor tags of the main window of the website (namely - links in the main window all open in new windows and not in the specified target iframe). I've searched and searched and looked up all sorts of things, rendering me a confused and frustrated fellow. here's the script: <script language="javascript"> function show(thechosenone) { var newboxes = document.getElementsByTagName("div"); for(var x=0; x<newboxes.length; x++) { name = newboxes[x].getAttribute("name"); if (name == 'newboxes') { if (newboxes[x].id == thechosenone) { newboxes[x].style.display = 'block'; } else { newboxes[x].style.display = 'none'; } } } } </script> and in the body: <a id="myHeader2" href="javascript:show('myDiv');" >click here to show div</a> ANY help is greatly appreciated! Hi, I'm having troube closing the main Internet Explorer window using a script called from a right click menu. The code I'm using is: Code: <script language="JavaScript"> var oWindow = window.external.menuArguments; oWindow.close(); </script> When the script calls, windows prompts to close the window, but when 'yes' is clicked the Alert sound sounds and the window remains open! If the script is called from a button on the page it will close, but I want to close any page on the internet using a right click! All help will be gratefully received. Dave. Ok, 'nother head-banger for the hardcore! I have a "contact us" <a> with the id 'contact' on the main page, which is supposed to change the source file of an iframe to the contact page. Except when I click on "contact us" nothing happens. I've tried to get this to work several different ways, and suspect that the problem is purely syntax, but I just haven't been able to figure it out. Here's the code: The snippet on the main page (index.html): Code:
<div id="linkListContact" class="LinkList">
<img id="linkListContactBg" class="SideBarBgImg" src="Assets/Backgrounds/SideBar/ContactBg.png"></img>
<span>
<ul>
<li>
<div><a id="contact">Contact Us</a>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
</span>
</div>
... and the relevant Javascript: Code:
function setIFrame(frameSource)
{
document.getElementById('mainWindow').src = frameSource;
}
function setContactLink()
{
var contactURL = "http://katabasis.spreadshirt.com/shop/imprint"
document.getElementById('contact').onclick = new Function ( "setIFrame( 'contactURL' )" );
}
The setIFrame function is used to call the content initially when the page loads, and is working beautifully in that context. You can see the problem in action at the actual site: www.katabasis-apparel.com. Thanks. When I click the button to open an url (example: http://www.yahoo.com) from a page, I can mark this url/screen name. So the next time I click on the same button, the same window will pop up instead of opening multiple windows. If I have already had the window opened not via the button, when clicking the button, it pops up a new window instead of opening up the existing. Is there a way to check the screen name or partial url of the existing window? If there is a match with the url being called from the button, it will use the existing one. Hi, Which javascript event should be used to call logout on window close and url change. I want to call logout function on window close and URL change on my application. I am calling logout functionon on <body onunload="doLogout();">, but onunload event is also called when refreshing the page. is there any specific event for Windoe close and URL change. can anyone resolve this issue. Regrads, Abha Hi. I have a question about java script code. I'm creating a website with frames. Within the main page frame, there are tables in the main content page. When I created the website, it fit perfectly in the browser window of my smaller laptop. I just checked it out on my old G5 and the images/pages are too big and either cut off or scroll bars appear (which is not what I want) So I wanted to know what code I put in my files and where to put it? Also, what pages does it need to be in? the main frame index page? the specific pages that fit within the frames? some are images that load in the frames? would i need to create an .html for those and then have the .jpg load so that it can be resized? I need the main page to be resized to fit the browser as well as the pages in the frames to fit. Can you help? Thanks i have this code i need to close the parent.html window when the child window opened, i need the code for that working well in IE and Firefox Parent.html <HTML> <SCRIPT TYPE="text/javascript"> function sendTo() { window.open('child.html','_blank','resizable=yes,width='+(screen.width-500)+',height='+(screen.height-500)+''); } </SCRIPT> <BODY > <form name="form"> <input type="text" value="" name="text1" id="pdetails1"> <input type="text" value="" name="text1" id="pdetails2"> </br> <input type="submit" value="submit" onClick="sendTo()"> </BODY> </HTML> child.html <html> <body> <form> <input type=text name="text5" value=""> <input type=submit name="submit"value="submit"> </form> </body> </html> Hello all, and thank you for your coments, I want to preserve a 16/9 aspect ratio to the window after any resize, making the width a function of the height. As I have a window.resizeTo() inside the window.onresize event function, the infinite loop is served. How may I quit it? Code: <html><head><title>Title</title><script languaje="javascript">
const c_ra=16/9;
window.onresize = function WindowReSize() {
var myWidth = 0, myHeight = 0;

myHeight = window.innerHeight;
} else if( document.documentElement && ( document.documentElement.clientWidth || document.documentElement.clientHeight ) ) {
//IE 6+ in 'standards compliant mode'
// myWidth = document.documentElement.clientWidth;
myHeight = document.documentElement.clientHeight;
}
myWidth = Math.floor(myHeight*c_ra);
window.resizeTo(myWidth,myHeight); // ** CAUTION resize event in a onresize event handler !

hello everybody i need your help and experience for having code to show ( overlay / modal window ) to the user when closing or navigating away from the page ( i want put in this window facebook share to make the user to share the page in his facebook ) , bytheway i wanna use it in my wordpress in every post could it be happen ? Thanks for helping Here is the program: http://www.1728.com/newwindow.htm Basically, I want to input a number in the input box, which assigns a number to the variable numval located at document.box1.b1. When clicking on the "new window" button, an alert displays the input box value, then another window opens and displays the integers 1 through 12 and the amount squared. I would like the new window to obtain the number from the previous window so that the new window will display integers (and their squares) from 1 to the value of numval. I am looking to have a link open a closeable window that is contained within a browser window. If you click on the "sizing charts" link on this website, this is exactly what I am looking to do: http://www.bella.com/mapper.php?pageid=40 The window is contained within the current browser window, it can be dragged around, but not outside the parameters of the browser window. Is there a title for this technique that I can research? Not looking to waste anybodys time, but if I can get steered in the right direction it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Hi All, I need to show/focus the parent window which is in back when click a link from child window in Chrome.This problem is in Chrome browser only. We have used the below code self.blur(); Window.opener.focus(); But this is not working in Google Chrome. Please suggest me some workaround to achieve this.

Join Date Feb 2009 Posts 28,311 Thanks 82 Thanked 4,754 Times in 4,716 Posts Window is not defined. window is. JavaScript (and the DOM) is case sensitive. You must pay attention to upper/lower case spelling, carefully. By the way, you shouldn't need the blur() call. If you focus on some window (any window) then any other focus should be lost. Hi Ive found out how to force another browser window to open at a certain size when a link is clicked. Here's the whole line of code including the layer, the javascript and the image, <div id="Layer6" style="position:absolute; width:10px; height:8px; z-index:6; left: 561px; top: 310px"><a href="javascript:;" onClick="MM_openBrWindow('navigation%20instructions.htm','','width=50,height=50')"><img src="images/info.gif" width="15" height="15" border="0"></a></div> How do I adapt this so I can also specify the x&y co-ordinates of the opened window relative to the window that launched it. thanks alot Masten After following the instructions from the answer below: http://bytes.com/topic/javascript/an...arent-document I was able to have the child window perform the function defined in the parent window. The function was to only have an alert window pop up as the child page was loading. I easily modified this to my intention which was to have a parent function performed when the child window was clicked. Using the body tag: Code: <body onclick="parent.FUNCTION NAME HERE()"> I first change the method in which the function would be triggered, all went well there. then I tried to change which function would be triggered. (Basically use the function I wanted to happen on click of the child window rather then the function from the test). Once I did this switch, nothing happens. The site this is being used on is: http://tylerpanesar.ca/ What I want is when the menu bar is open in the parent window, the user chooses a link and the menu closes and goes to that link in the child window. This already works. However if the user opens the menu bar and then changes there mind and continues with the page the are currently on (clicks any content in the child window), the menu stays open. Currently the menu "hides" only when you choose one of the menu items, but it does not "hide" when you CLICK on child document. If you could figure out how to get it to "hide" on a "mouse out" that would be the better option. I attempted this method however i could only get it to "toggle" the menu on "mouse out". This method does however create an annoying flicker when you hover over the menu items (as it is toggling the open menu command I guess). If I had it "hide" the menu on "mouse out" it would "hide" as soon as you moved off of the main button. The viewer doesn't even have a chance to click a link. or at least that is what happens when I did it. You may have a better method to achieve this. The script that tells it to hide on click is within a jQuery function: Code: menua
.click(
function(){
menu.hide();
the code I used for the mouseout toggle was: Code: menu
.mouseout(
function(){
menu.toggle();
Here is the script that I am currently using for the menu to open and the "click" hide feature. This menu feature comes from the following help: http://www.bennadel.com/blog/1740-Bu...-FaceBook-.htm Code: <script type="text/javascript">
jQuery(function( $ ){
var menuRoot = $( "#menu-root" );
var menu = $( "#menu" );
var menua = $( "#menu a" );
// Hook up menu root click event.
menuRoot
.attr( "href", "javascript:void( 0 )" )
.click(
function(){
// Toggle the menu display.
menu.toggle();
// Blur the link to remove focus.
menuRoot.blur();
// Cancel event (and its bubbling).
return( false );
}
)
;
menua
.click(
function(){
// Toggle the menu display.
menu.hide();
}
)
;
// Hook up a click handler on the document so that
// we can hide the menu if it is not the target of
// the mouse click.
$( document ).click(
function( event ){
// Check to see if this came from the menu.
if (
menu.is( ":visible" ) &&
!$( event.target ).closest( "#menu" ).size()
){
// The click came outside the menu, so
// close the menu.
menu.hide();
}
}
);
});
</script>
I've tried adding the click to "hide" menu feature to the child document but there is now menu in that document for it to "hide". What I was trying to was have the child document execute a function from the parent document and have that function executed IN the parent document. I've tried the technique from the link in my very first post but I believe it only calls the function from the parent and executes it IN the child. Which does not work for me as the menu is not in the child. There should be a way to make the child execute a function FOR the parent. I apologize for this very wordy post, but I am extremely frustrated with this now as I have been trying to get this to work for a few weeks now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Tyler I am trying to pop up a window and then do stuff(set flags) when the content of the new window is done loading. For this I am trying to detect the window.onload of the pop-up child window but so far I am unsuccessful. I believe my problem is that the URL of child window is on different domain, than the one of the opener(parent) so that the window.onload is not being called. Thought this may change, at the moment I do not have access to the code for the page I'm opening up in the pop-up. Im pretty new to web development. Any help is appreciated. Heres my js code Code: //globals
var popupHandle = null;
var openingWindow = false;
function popWindow(URL){
var windowId="sameid";
if (openingWindow == true)
{
alert("Please wait, content is still loading")
return;
}
if ((popupHandle == null || popupHandle.closed)){ //is first time run or window was closed
openingWindow = true;
popupHandle = window.open(URL, '" + windowId + "', 'toolbar=0,scrollbars=0,location=0,statusbar=0,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=900,height=500');
popupHandle.onload = function(){
//this is the code that never executes even if I all I put in here is simple alerting
openingWindow = false;
windowHandle.focus();
};
}
else{// window still exists, reset attributes
if (popupHandle != null)
{
popupHandle.location.href = URL;
popupHandle.focus();
}
}
}
Note: The whole reason why I am doing this is because if its the first time I am clicking on the button that will open this pop up window and I click it repeatedly very quickly, a new pop up is opened for each time I clicked eventhough the window.open is supposed to reuse the window if it has the same windowId. The first call to window.open takes long enough to not have a window handle ready and this allows other clicks to get through. Hi, I have parent page with 10 child window and i want to close all child window when click on close session button on parent but first i need to check whether any child window open or not after that action should be done for close the child window. For a parent window opened a child window, how can the parnet window be notified when the child window is closed or terminated? Thank you. |
