Message: [QUOTE="grp_pst_363, post: 4716148"] Craig You could try to pass the information as a query string in the URL. Youy could either assemble a query string with JS or use a hidden form that submits using the get method. In a web page in domain1: <form name="myForm" action="[URL]http://domain2/page2.html[/URL]" method="get" target="whatever"> <input name="x" value="" type="hidden"> <input name="y" value="" type="hidden"> </form> To open the new window named "whatever" and pass over the info x=23 and y="abc": document.myForm.x.value=23; document.myForm.y.value="abc"; document.myForm.submit(); This should open the web page [URL]http://domain2/page2.html?x=23&y=abc[/URL] in the window called "whatever". Alternatively assemble the query string above and use it as the url for your window.open command. In the web page [URL]http://domain2/page2.html[/URL] you need to decode the search string (and here's code based on "something I prepared earlier"). var submission=self.location.search.substring(1,self.location.search.length); // remove "?" at start of query string var nameValuePairs = new Array(); var oneNameValuePair = new Array(); var names = new Array(); var values = new Array(); var name; var value; var newName; var punctuator="&"; // use "&" for query string or ";" for cookies nameValuePairs = submission.split(punctuator); // split into name=value pairs for (var i in nameValuePairs) { oneNameValuePair = nameValuePairs[i].split('='); // separate name and value if (oneNameValuePair[0].length>0) { // if a name to left of = sign name = unescape( oneNameValuePair[0] ).split("+").join(" "); value = unescape( oneNameValuePair[1] ).split("+").join(" "); // remove url encoding newName = true; for (var j in names) if (name == names[j]) newName = false; if (newName) { names[names.length] = name; values[name] = value; // single value with this name } else { values[name] = values[name] +","+value; // comma separated list of multiple values with this name } } } This gives (I hope) an array in domain2 web page called names containing "x" & "y" and an associative array called values where values["x"] is "23" and values["y"] is "abc". I've taken the above code from something I've used/tested previously but modified it without testing - CAVEAT EMPTOR. Hope that's of some use. Mark[/i] [/QUOTE]
