send variables to function in new window

[Marco Alting]

hi

I have a javascript function, which gets parameters from a form and then
opens a new form in another window.
The new window also has a javascript function with parameters. My question
is, how can I send the variable values from one function to another in a new
window?

Thanks,
Marco

simply by adressing the window first.
You have 2 windows, named window1 and window2.

so if you have a function win2func in window2 and want to call that from
window 1 use:
window2.win2fun c("hello!");

Of course you'll have to replace "hello!" by some value from one of your
formfields.

It's not exactly what I want, I want to pass the variable from window 1 to
window 2 and use it there in a function.

You could use window.opener.
