demonstrate *how* you solved the problem ! ;-)

Personally, I would change your code to:

[CODE]<script type="text/javascript">
function expiredpop() {
var newWind = window.open( "viewcheck.php", "myWindow",
"status = 1, height = 300, width = 300, resizable = 0" );
}
</script>

<a href="" onclick="expiredpop()">MOVE SCHEDULE</a>
[/CODE]

making sure that "viewcheck.php" actually wrote some HTML

which included text or hidden fields with defined ID's.

then, using:

[CODE]newWind.document.getElementById("someField").value = . . . ;
[/CODE]
your calling page could pass values by ID to the new window or,

by using.:

[CODE]var newVariable = window.opener.document.getElementById("someField").value;
[/CODE]
in the new window, it could acquire values from the main window.

The second method is better.
