Hi,

I'm using master page in the parent page.

When I'm opening the child page and use the below code

window.opener.document.forms(0).abcd.value is null or not an object

MIDL

string strScript = "<script>window.opener.document.forms(0).abcd.value" + " = '" + textbox1.text + "';";
strScript += "self.close()";
strScript += "</" + "script>";
RegisterClientScriptBlock("abcd", strScript);

I have also used the
1. window.document.getElementById('abcd').value
2. window.opener.document.forms[0].abcd.value
3. window.opener.document.forms['form1'].elements['abcd'].value
4. window.opener.document.forms[0].elements['abcd'].value
5. self.opener.document.abcd.value

instead of

window.opener.document.forms(0).abcd.value

but neither of them worked for me

Please help me on this

Thanks in advance.

What versions of IE and Netscape would not support it?

Dear Friend
Instead of using document.forms(0).abcd.value
use

MIDL

document.getElementById('myText').value;

as it will give you more precise result

you can also assign the value returned by the function to a variable and perform operation on it
eg:-

var DivValue=document.getElementById('DivValue');
alert(DivValue);

Hi All

The problem is resolved

where i removed the runat="server" tag from the text box and uses

window.opener.document.getElementById('abcd').value

instead of

window.opener.document.forms(0).abcd.value
