Ok... It has been a while since I have been back for some of the best advice on the net... Here is my dilema... <br />
<br />
I am opening a small popup window (no toolbars or anything), approx. 350x400. This window will have a bunch of text links on it. When you click one of the links the window automatically closes. I have all of this running ok. <br />
<br />
Now I want to have the new page load in the first window that the user click on the link that made the popup open. Does this make sense? <br />
<br />
So you open the page (will call this page1)... click on a link which opens a popup (called page2). You click on a link on page2... page2 closes automatically and the new page opens in page1. <br />
<br />
Anyone have some ideas? <br />
