The window.open() function will also allow this if you have a reference to the window created, provided it is on the same domain.
If the variable is used server side you should be using a $_SESSION variable (assuming you are using PHP).
Provided the windows are from the same security domain, and you have a reference to the other window, yes.
Javascript's open() method returns a reference to the window created (or existing window if it reuses an existing one). Each window created in such a way gets a property applied to it "window.opener" pointing to the window which created it.
Either can then use the DOM (security depending) to access properties of the other one, or its documents,frames etc.
Yes, it can be done as long as both windows are on the same domain. The window.open() function will return a handle to the new window. The child window can access the parent window using the DOM element "opener".
Alternatively, you can add it to the URL and let the scripting language (PHP, Perl, ASP, Python, Ruby, whatever) handle it on the other side. Something like:
var yourValue = 'something';
window.open('/childwindow.html?yourKey=' + yourValue);
Then in childwindow.html:
var query = location.search.substring(1);
var parameters = {};
var keyValues = query.split(/&/);
for (var keyValue in keyValues) {
var keyValuePairs = keyValue.split(/=/);
var key = keyValuePairs[0];
var value = keyValuePairs[1];
parameters[key] = value;
}
alert(parameters['yourKey']);
There is potentially a lot of error checking you should be doing in the parsing of your key/value pairs but I'm not including it here. Maybe someone can provide a more inclusive Javascript query string parsing routine in a later answer.
Putting code to the matter, you can do this from the parent window:
var thisIsAnObject = {foo:'bar'};
var w = window.open("http://example.com");
w.myVariable = thisIsAnObject;
or this from the new window:
var myVariable = window.opener.thisIsAnObject;
I prefer the latter, because you will probably need to wait for the new page to load anyway, so that you can access its elements, or whatever you want.
Yes, scripts can access properties of other windows in the same domain that they have a handle on (typically gained through window.open/opener and window.frames/parent). It is usually more manageable to call functions defined on the other window rather than fiddle with variables directly.
Simple values like strings are fine, but generally it isn't a good idea to pass complex objects such as functions, DOM elements and closures between windows. If a child window stores an object from its opener, then the opener closes, that object can become 'dead' (in some browsers such as IE), or cause a memory leak. Weird errors can ensue.
Yes browsers clear all ref. for a window. So you have to search a ClassName of something on the main window or use cookies as Javascript homemade ref.
I have a radio on my project page. And then you turn on for the radio it´s starts in a popup window and i controlling the main window links on the main page and show status of playing and in FF it´s easy but in MSIE not so Easy at all. But it can be done.
You can pass variables, and reference to things in the parent window quite easily:
// open an empty sample window:
var win = open("");
win.document.write("<html><body><head></head><input value='Trigger handler in other window!' type='button' id='button'></input></body></html>");
// attach to button in target window, and use a handler in this one:
var button = win.document.getElementById('button');
button.onclick = function() {
alert("I'm in the first frame!");
}
function openWindow(path, callback /* , arg1 , arg2, ... */){
var args = Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments, 2); // retrieve the arguments
var w = window.open(path); // open the new window
w.addEventListener('load', afterLoadWindow.bind(w, args), false); // listen to the new window's load event
function afterLoadWindow(/* [arg1,arg2,...], loadEvent */){
callback.apply(this, arguments[0]); // execute the callbacks, passing the initial arguments (arguments[1] contains the load event)
}
}
var win = window.open(<window.location.href>, '_blank');
setTimeout(function(){
win.postMessage(SRFBfromEBNF,"*")
},1000);
win.focus();
根据上下文被替换
在“孩子”中
window.addEventListener('message', function(event) {
if(event.srcElement.location.href==window.location.href){
/* do what you want with event.data */
}
});
