passing values from a popup window to parent

[chrislive]

Hi I am building a script that allows creation of a user, so i have the normal fields such as;

name, email, phone.

However I also want to have a button to open a popup window and allow the selection of one or more form values and submittion of that form. without loosing the data I just entered reload the parent form adding a list of the values selected previously. This would then be stored in hidden fields and added to the database after.

Im really not sure where to start and doing a google didnt find an understandable solution haha

Thanks
Chris

This is pretty straight forward to do with javascript (without having to reload the parent page, even). I don't really do javascript myself, but I'd seen code which did this and it looked very simple.

Perhaps try searching the javascript forum (I think there's one here?). If not, codewalkers.com has lots of code snippets for such things.
