send info from popup to asp page

send info from popup to asp page

Hey gang. I have searched the web, and can't find what i need. hoping
someone here can help

i have a form that pops up based on a click. the popup opens up correctly.
now what i want it to do is this.

1. submit the data to an asp page. that part i got working
2. close the popup box. have that working as well.
3. after processing the data on the asp page, direct to and refresh the
parent page that the popup was created from.

to be more specific....

i have a bracket page, where you click on the winners name to move them
over. works fine. that sends variables to a pop up box, where you enter a
score. that works fine. now when i submit, it only sneds the data to the asp
page, and even though the bottom of the asp page redirects it to the parent
page, it doesn't. it seems like it is trying to redirect to the popup that
doesn't exist anymore, so it does nothing.

i hope this makes sense to someone.

sounds like your pop-up is a new window, if I follow your logic.

To redirect from the pop-up, back to the original window and refresh, requires client side coding. that's not a server issue and
therefore not an ASP issue.

yea.. i was afraid of that.
you sortof got it.

but let me ask this... and again, might be the wrong forum... is it possible
to send the results to the parent page to be processed? instead of
processing it in the popup??

yes, send the form results back to the page holding the form. This is the recommended practice.

in the page, check to see if a form has been submitted, if so process it, if not display the form.
