Re: Header() to a different browser instance

I'd probably walk the form and attach it as a query string to the url. This has not been tested. function closeandredirect() { url="add_property.php?"; formels=document.forms[0].elements; numel=formels.length; for (x=0;x<numel;x++){ url+=escape(formels[x].name)+"=" +((formels[x].selectedIndex!=null)? escape(formels[x].options[formels[x].selectedIndex].value) :escape(formels[x].value))+((x==(numel-1))?"":"&"); } self.opener.location.href=url; self.close(); } ----- Original Message ----- From: "eric" <edahnke@istreetlabs.com> To: <php-general@lists.php.net>; <dgw@q-logic.org>; <Boz@musheen.com> Sent: Monday, July 10, 2000 3:15 PM Subject: Re: [Fwd: Re: [PHP] Header() to a different browser instance] > > Hello, > > Thanks a lot for the input.
