Hi to all!

I’m haveing a big problem regarding updateing dynamicaly
o textbox value.

I have a page that contains 3 frames. One of them is called “main”.
In this frame I load a page that dispays one textbox and one button.
When I press the button I open using JavaScript a new window in witch
I have 2 links. When I press one link I want to dynamicaly update the value
of the textbox from the “main” frame.

The problem is that I do not know how to refer to the first window because
it was not created using JavaScript code.

If you know how to do this…please healp me because I can’t find an answer
anywere and I’m desperate.
