losing value of window.opener

[kewpe20]

Hello all,

 

I've been trying to a resolve an issue with a parent page not reloading after a child form is submitted.

The initial problem is that I immediately lose the value of window.opener on the call to the child window.. What am I doing wrong?

 

Here is my call to the child window in my php file:

 

<a href="notes.php" class="actiontiny" target="_blank" onclick="modalWin('3','4','add' ); return false;">Add Note</a>

 

Here is the Javascript for modalWin function:

The alert statement results in "undefined" when it should result in the name of the parent's php file name....right?

 

function modalWin(type, id, func) {

  alert(window.opener);

  if (window.showModalDialog) {

    window.showModalDialog("notes.php?type="+type+"&id="+id+"&func="+func+"","Notes", "dialogWidth:600px;dialogHeight:510px");

  } else {

    window.open('notes.php?type='+type+'&id='+id+'&func='+func+'','Notes',

    'height=510,width=600,toolbar=no,directories=no,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=no,resizable=no ,modal=yes');

  }

}
