passing variable between a window and an open page

[isaac_cm]

Hello,

I know how to pass information between pages using cookies, sessions, form variables , but I wonder how to pass a variable to already opened paged ?

 

I have a pages contain an image button that button will open a window to upload file into server I need when the window closed to pass the images name to the opened (calling) pages

 

any Advice ?

Thanks

U can use sessions. After u make the validation and move_uploaded_file() assign the filename to a session.

I need after closing the window the file name displayed in a text box how I can detect window close ?

Javascript.

 

You could add an onClose() event to the window to send a value to the window's opener.

 

not php....

But why stressing yourself with javascript and such. When the image or images are uploaded pass their filename to sessions and u have got those values, before and after the user closes the window. If there is any specific reason for this, let us know more.

no reason but if I used session do I have to use something like timer to check session value ?

 

I mean what trigger I use to know that the file is uploaded ? I dont want to use ajax my host is slow

 

thanks
