URL Forwarding
Hi, I have a html/php document, with a text link that opens a new window/popup.
The new popup windows contains a form. What i want is when the user submits the form, when the form completes it's task, it closes the popup, then call a url from the main page.
Is this even possible?
Thanks in Advance.

Ya, it's possible. Here is an example.
Just open the popup however you want to do it, and on the send page of the popup, have this code in the head:
<script language="javascript">function UpdateClose()
{
opener.window.location = "some_page";
self.close();
}
</script>
...and this in the body:
<script language="javascript">UpdateClose();
</script>

AHH THANK YOU.
Thanks for this. I have had to settle for the user closing the window manually after it has displayed a thanks page.
Thank you for this, it save me from being overloaded by junk mail.
If the user is dropped off in the contact form, then they continually send.
If it directs them away, then they forget quickly. lol.
cheers.
