Let's say I have a browser open (call it "parent"). "Parent" opens up a pop-up window called "child". I want "parent" to be able to detect when "child" has been closed by the user. Thanks |

The easiest method for doing this is too have a Javascript function run when the child window closes. ------------- L. Jamal Walton http://www.ljamal.com/" rel="nofollow - L. Jamal Inc : Web/ Print Design and ASP Programming |

| It's called "onunload" or something like that and goes in the body tag. |

onUnload is called EVERY time the page unloads which means if the page is refresh or a new page is loaded onUnload will be called. Not a problem if you are just opening a window for content reading, but can be a big problem if the window is used for browsing. ------------- L.
