in your popup window:
function OnSomethingClick()
{
var el = window.opener.document.getElementById('SomeLabelOrOther');
el.innerText = "Something else"; //obviously, you might want to change a different propertywindow.close();// dont have to do that if you dont want to }This works for IE... havent tested with FF yet. Will do in a minute. Just did. Doesn't work in FF.
var question = (_2b || !(_2b));
