Hello,
I'm having a bit of trouble trying to figure out how to get this to work.

I have a window (window #1) which brings up a pop up window (window #2) on load. Now, I need a link in the pop up window to do two things. First i want it to load a url in the origional window (window #1) and also close the pop up (window #2)

I know something similar can be done with frames, but i don't have any experience doing this across seperate windows without frames. Does anyone have a solution or is able to point me in the right direction to solve this?

Any help is appreciated, thanks <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

To close the window you could use a javascript function


&lt;script language="JavaScript"&gt;
function close_window() {
window.close();
}
&lt;/script&gt;

and call this function from your link

&lt;a href="javascript:;" onClick="close_window()"&gt;close window&lt;/a&gt;

hang on a min tho, i've just found this script which does exactly what you want
