Yes, you can.

No

But If I open new window like this my_window = window.open(... ......); I suppose that wherever I am in my javascript code I should be able to obtain information from that variable, or not?
If yes, how??

my_window then becomes (in the parent window) like the window object in the child window. So you can call my_window.locat ion.href and that should give you the URL of the child window.

I am really not able to make it work

My code:

projectTest.htm l

Code:

<head>
<title>lucio palmitessa</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-type" content='text/html; charset="UTF-8"' />

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/style-p.css" />
<link rel="shortcut icon" href="/src/arancia.png" />
<script type="text/javascript" src="src/javascriptTest.js" ></script>


</head>
<body >
	<div id="esquerra"><!-- menu principale della sinistra-->
	<br />
	
	<p><A onclick="test();">Open pop-up and grab url</a></p>

	<p><a>Text 1</a> </p>
		<div id="sinistra"></div>


	<p><a >Text 2</a> </p>
		<div id="iltesto"></div>

	</div><!-- fine esquerra -->
</body>
</html>

javascriptTest. js

Code:


var myw = true




function pop(nome)
{
if(false == myw.closed)
 {
   myw.close (); 
 }
myw = window.open("http://"+nome+"","M","width=700,height=2000,location=yes,status=yes,resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,fullscreen=no,toolbar=yes,left=200"); 
}

function test(){
pop('www.yahoo.it');

setTimeout("timeo()",3000);
var y=myw.location.href;
document.getElementById('sinistra').innerHTML='url '+y;

}

function timeo(){
	document.getElementById('iltesto').innerHTML='no function';
	var x = myw.location.href;
	alert(x);
}

link to test page testPage

At this point I just don't know what's wrong.

I see what your problem is now. If you check with a URL in your own domain, it will work, but with any other domain, e.g. the Yahoo one, it wont work because of a permissions issue.

So time wasted uselessly, I am sorry, I thought that get back the domain was not a problem (with variables it's different story)!

Thank you
