I am having problems getting a popup to open from an onSubmit function when the form is being submitted from another frame.
Basically, I have two frames. In one frame I have a form and a JavaScript function, and the other frame contains a submit button (unfortunately this layout, albeit unorthodox, is essential).
FRAME ONE:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function openPopup() {
window.open('index.htm');
return false;
}
//-->
</script>
<body>
<form name="myform" method="post" onsubmit="return openPopup();">
…
</form>
</body>
FRAME TWO:
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function submitTheForm() {
parent.right.myform.submit();
}
//-->
</script>
<body>
<a href="#" onClick="submitTheForm();"><img src=”myimage.gif”></a>
</body>
The button in frame two successfully submits the form BUT the openPopup function does not run. Is this a known problem?
Any ideas how to fix?
I also need to pass the input values from the form elements to the new window.
