I had an e-commerce website and the problem in question is this.
When users brose the products, they had and small thumnails with and INFO>> link and a BUY NOW button (like the major e-commerce sites)
When user click on INFO>> I had a Javascript that open a new browser window to sow detailed information of the product and with the corresponding BUY NOW button again. This work fine. What I need is that when user click on the button (BUY), close the active window and return to the previous calling an ASP procedure in other page.
Once email is verified, we will review and approve the account.
Web Presence Hidden.
Once above is taken care of, full Profile content will display including back links, about me, my message, custom Profile html,
social networking links, message board signature, company profile, etc.
In javascript, you can access a parent window via the window.opener property, i.e. window.opener.foo() if you had a foo function in the parent window.In this function you could handle any button push, etc. from the child window passing in any parameters you needed.
As for having an ASP subroutine or function called, I believe the only way you could achieve this is if you have some AJAX in there, with the (in our example) the foo function making an HTTP Request to another ASP script and updating a textbox or div block on the parent page.
