var newWin = null;  
var OpenWindow = null;
function popUp(strURL, strType, strHeight, strWidth) {  
 if (newWin != null && !newWin.closed)  
   newWin.close();  
 var strOptions="";  
 if (strType=="console")  
   strOptions="resizable,height="+  
     strHeight+",width="+strWidth;  
 if (strType=="fixed")  
   strOptions="status,height="+  
     strHeight+",width="+strWidth;  
 if (strType=="elastic")  
   strOptions="toolbar,menubar,scrollbars,"+  
     "resizable,location,height="+  
     strHeight+",width="+strWidth;
 alert(window.parent.document.getElementById(window.name));
 newWin = window.open(strURL, 'alertWindow', strOptions);

 //newWin.document.getElementById("child").value='Str';  
newWin.focus();  
// send_data(data);
}


function chat() {
    popUp('../alert.jsp','console',250,600);
}

</script>

<form name="AlertReceiverOnHeader" onclick="chat()">

Answer 3

+1 A:

Due to security restrictions, Javascript is unable to access documents that reside on a separate domain from the current one. So, if your parent is on a different domain from the child, this will never work.

Josh, the files are in the same domain! Wondering what I'm doing wrong :(
