Opener with mozilla

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Dec 31.2004

I can’t seem to get this code to work correctly in mozilla, all the others work fine. I’m trying to have it add a menu generated on the page that opens it. In mozilla it generates and error complaining about it.

[code=php]
Loading Maps…
<script type=”text/javascript”>
opener.focus();
opener.document.all.maps.innerHTML = ‘<label for=”map”>Map:</label><select name=”map”><%’code %></select><br />’;
window.close();
</script>[/code]

@CharlesDec 31.2004 — Try:

[font=monospace]<script type="text/javascript">

opener.focus();

opener.document.getElementById('maps').innerHTML = '<label for="map">Map:</label><select name="map"><%'code %></select><br />';

window.close();

</script>[/font]

The error mozilla gives in the console is "opener.document.all has no properties"

@Warren86Dec 31.2004 — Try swapping the double and single quotes, and avoid multiple uses of "map":

<script type="text/javascript">

opener.focus();
opener.document.all.maps.innerHTML = "<label for='map'>Map:</label><select name='isMap'><%code%></select><br>";
window.close();

</script>

@IncaWarriorauthorJan 01.2005 — http://www.strategyplanet.com/populous/newreview.asp is the opener page (choosing a map pack will open the new page)

http://www.strategyplanet.com/populous/mapsfrompack.asp is the page with the script

The error mozilla gives in the console is "opener.document.all has no properties" [/B][/QUOTE]That happens simply because you didn't use Charles' snippet.

document.all is IE specific and would also work, if 'maps' was the name of your div instead of the id. Due to the fact that your opener doc has a div with an id="maps", Charles' suggestion would function if only you implemented it. This is what you are still using:

opener.document.all.maps.innerHTML = '<label for="map">Map:</label><select name="map">(a number of options here)</select><br />';

Happy new year to everybody
