pop-up window

[mychikka]

Hi,

Im just starting to learn PHP nor Java and I dont have any basic idea how to do this. But im asking of basic knowledge or script on how to do a pop-up window inside PHP and select the name inside the pop-up window to transfer on my main page. All I know is I have to use Java to make things work. To clarify, here the steps user will do.

1. open main page
2. cick the button contact name
3. a pop up window will appear with list box of contacts.
4. after selecting the contact people it will display the name back to main page.

I hope i made it clear. let me know if you need more information.

thanks!

PHP is server-side; it does not interact directly with the browser.

Ask in the javascript forum.

thanks Mark for the input

a popup in Javascript is basicly like

window.open(file, name, settings);

Looks like after putting this thread on Java forum their kicking me out :) to PHP.

but anyways I was able to do the pop-up window the next problem Im having is how to copy the value selected from window 2 to window 1 back?

echo ' 
    <h2>' . ( $id ? translate ( 'Edit Entry' ) : translate ( 'Add Entry' ) ) 
 . $eType_label . '&nbsp;<img src="images/help.gif" alt="' . translate ( 'Help' ) 
 . '" class="help" onclick="window.open( \'search_contact.php' 
 . ( empty ( $id ) ? '?add=1' : '' ) 
 . '\', \'cal_help\', \'dependent,menubar,scrollbars,height=400,width=800,' 
 . 'innerHeight=420,outerWidth=420\' );" /></h2>'

Javascript, not Java. Two completely different things.

hi i want to know more and more regarding this.

about this (the topic) or this (the JavaScript keyword)?

if you have something specific in mind open a new thread and ask it. if it's some general, you may find some articles in the insights section useful or (even more general) look for a tutorial.

the PHP Manual Pages also offer lots of useful information.

you can do this in javascript just like this in popup window

window.opener.document.getElementById( 'xyz' ).value = value_from_contactbox 
window.close();
