I am trying to create a link so that when a user clicks on it a small
window will open, the user will have the ability to upload a file, and
when the user uploads the file it will go back to the main web page.
On the main page the script is:
// this is in the header
function openpopup(){
winpops=window.open("popmeup.html","","width=390,height=490,scrollbars,"); }
And the link is:
<a href="javascript:openpopup()">Click here to upload a file</a>
On the popup page I have:
// this is in the header
function do_it()
{
this.form.target=window.opener;
this.form.submit();
self.close();
}
// this is in the body
<FORM NAME='form' METHOD=POST ENCTYPE="multipart/form-data">
<INPUT TYPE=FILE NAME='the_file'>
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Now"
onClick="this.form.target=window.opener; this.form.submit();
self.close();">
</FORM>
The window closes (and I assume) submits the value but the opener never
refreshes. So nothing happens. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks for all of your help,
Dan
