[thelist] Two Javascript problems
Warden, Matt

Let's say that the first page has this script:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
var sMyName = "Matt Warden";
function getMyName()
{
return sMyName;
}
</script>
------------------------------------
then, you have this on the page in the opened window:
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
var sMyName = self.opener.getMyName();
/*
the variable sMyName has the value of "Matt Warden"
because it is returned by the function getMyName()
in the opener window.
*/
</script>
That look right? Been a while since I did this with JavaScript. This (well,
similar) technique is used a lot with Java classes. Rather than grabbing
attribute values like Classname.attribute, attributes would be inaccessable,
except from the method Classname.getAttribute(). Kinda the same thing.
HTH,
