Close Page and return Value to Previous Page

[RuiPereira]

Hi

Page 1(represents the list of produts selected)

Page 2(pop up the list of produts, to select)

I am in PAGE1, then when i need to select a produt opens PAGE2
Then i select a produt in PAGE2 and that page close
In PAGE1 the product select will show

My problem is how can i do that

How are you storing which products the user has already selected?

[RuiPereira]

The products are stored in mysql. The problem is transport the select code from Page2 to Page 1 already open.

Why not store it when it is selected on page 2 then reload/refresh page 1 so it shows the revised list with newly selected item?

Without refresh you can use AJAX. With refresh you can do a POST request from page 2 to page 1 with the values you need.

Do you have any cod in ajax to test, because i cant refresh page 1

You basically return a result from another page without refresh with vanilla JS. The example uses an input but you can use whatever you want to send the request.

Here is the jquery method. I find it easier to go through.
