johnsmith153 Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 I know I can use window.open etc. to open a new window then change value in the parent window from this new window. For example, a form is in the parent, I then open a new window (window.open) where I can select from a list of things, when I select the window closes and a form field in the parent window is filled with my selection. I can do all this. The problem is that I want the parent to use http only, and I need the new window to use https: the http://parent doesnt seem to like to take orders from a https://child window. Is this possible, or do I have to use https on the parent? Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/124600-parent-child-windowopen/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
uniflare Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Personally i'm not sure why it wouldn't work, you know SSL connections are used when sending and retrieving data from the server, so if your not submitting a form from this new window i dont see why you need it to be SSL. Just trying to help you find an alternative solution.

lemmin Posted September 18, 2008 Share Posted September 18, 2008 It doesn't work because the locations in the two windows are on different domains. You will probably want to use GET or POST to communicate between the two.
