set readonly from pop-up

i’m using a pop-up page to select data and populate the parent page, but i want to set read only to the populated inputs

function SendInfo(name) {
window.opener.document.form_name.input_name.value = name;

//here i want to use something like this
inputEnable(“input_name”, true);

}

where
function inputEnable(id,state) {
var divObj = null;
if (document.getElementById) {
divObj = document.getElementById(id);
} else if(document.all) {
divObj = document.all(id);
} else if (document.layers) {
divObj = document.layers[id];
}

if(divObj) {
divObj.readOnly = state;
}

}

my question is : can that function be modified so it would work in another page??

@A1ien51Mar 08.2006 — HINT: Same way you are doing it here:

window.opener.document.form_name.input_name.value = name;

I personally would not use document.all or document.layers but then again I do not work in the dark ages.
