Passing Dynamic Loop Data From Child Page To Parent
Hi All,
I'm trying to create something where when a user clicks a link on the main page, javascript opens a new window which querys a database and displays the results. The user then selects the result they want via a form button or url (doesn't matter which) from the child page, which sends a value to fill in a form field on the parent page. Sounds simple, but I can't figure out how to get the information back to the parent page from the dynamic form in the child. I get a value of Undefined in the form field on the parent page. I think its because I'm using the same name for each button with a different value, and javascript doesn't like that. I'm not really that good with JS, which I suspect is why I can't get it. I'll post my code below, and any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
