Image src updates only once?

[beast37217]

I'm running a javascript routine within an asp.net subroutine in a child window. The script works fine and updates the image and the dropdown box in the parent window then closes. But once it's done that if you try to run it again, the script works but doesn't update the image (unless you refresh the page)

Any help is really appreciated. (I have to disguise the <script> tags as asp.net doesn't like them within a sub)

Here's the code...

[CODE=javascript]jScriptString = "<SCR" + "IPT>"
jScriptString += "opener.documen t.amend.ImgSrc1 .options.length =0;"
jScriptString += "var optn=opener.doc ument.createEle ment('OPTION'); "
jScriptString += "optn.text='"+s aveFileAs+"."+s uppLinksType+"' ;"
jScriptString += "optn.value='"+ saveFileAs+"."+ suppLinksType+" ';"
jScriptString += "opener.documen t.amend.ImgSrc1 .options.add(op tn);"
jScriptString += "opener.documen t.amend.image.s rc='"+suppLinks Dest+saveFileAs +"."+suppLinksT ype+"';"
jScriptString += "setTimeout('se lf.close();',30 00)"
jScriptString += "</SCR" + "IPT>"
[/CODE]

Thanks for any help

Welcome to TSDN!

But once it's done that if you try to run it again, the script works but doesn't update the image (unless you refresh the page)

You mean by opening the child window again? Where are the variables suppLinksDest, saveFileAs and suppLinksType set?

Sorry I didn't explain properly, Yes..
The child script updates the parent window image, then closes itself. But if you re-open the child and select another image the script 'works' because it closes the child at the end but the parent image is not updated

The variables are set within the aspx subroutine. They are used with the System.Drawing. Image.FromStrea m object - This works fine, as it updates a preview image in the child window, just before the javascript kicks in

Does the select dropdown get updated? Any error messages?

Can you show the code for the img element in the parent page?

Yes the select dropdown is being updated properly and there are no error messages. The script completes becasue the child window closes ok at the end

This is the parent windows imge element...
<img src="photos/<%=arrProducts( 22,0)%>" name="image" width="200px" border="0" />

Thanks

Give the image an id of "image" and try this:
[CODE=javascript]jScriptString += "opener.documen t.getElementByI d('image').src= '"+suppLinksDes t+saveFileAs+". "+suppLinksType +"';"[/CODE]
