I am building an order form with PHP and MySQL.
The PHP Form has an input box where the user types in a product code. In the event that the user does not know the product code, I want them to click on an image or button next to the input box, which opens a popup with a list of all product codes. they can then click on the product they want and the product code is passed from the popup to the input box on that table row.
I have the code of my page below and the image of the page it creates so you can get a feel for what I am wanting to acheive.
parent page
<table border=0 id="hor-minimalist-a">
<tr>
<th valign=bottom>KVI</th>
<th valign=bottom>PACK CODE</th>
<th valign=bottom width=250>DESCRIPTION</th>
<th valign=bottom width=40>WHSE</th>
<th valign=bottom width=25>SU</th>

</form>
the popup page code and image is below:
<?

if (!$con)
{
die('Could not connect: ' . mysql_error());
}
mysql_select_db("databasename", $con);
$skusql="select packcode,category,description,grouping,packconfig,sellingunits,eottpoints from skudata order by category, packcode";
$resultsku=mysql_query($skusql);
?>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">

var selvalue = s.value;
window.opener.document.getElementById('details').value = selvalue;
window.close();
}
// End -->
</script>
<form name="selectform">

</tr>
<?php
}

I am trying to pass the value of the product code from the selected popup window row, to the parent window input box for 'pack code'
I was trying to adapt a script I came across but am not pulling it off. Any help appreciated as always!

Parent Page after popup
Thanks again for the help. Regards, Ryan
This question is related to
javascript
popup
The answer is
From your code
<input type=button value="Select" onClick="sendValue(this.form.details);"
Im not sure that your this.form.details valid or not.
IF it's valid, have a look in window.opener.document.getElementById('details').value = selvalue;
I can't found an input's id contain details I'm just found only id=sku1 (recommend you to add " like id="sku1").
And from your id it's hardcode. Let's see how to do with dynamic when a child has callback to update some textbox on the parent Take a look at here.
First page.
<html>
<head>
<script>
function callFromDialog(id,data){ //for callback from the dialog
document.getElementById(id).value = data;
// do some thing other if you want
}
function choose(id){
var URL = "secondPage.html?id=" + id + "&dummy=avoid#";
window.open(URL,"mywindow","menubar=1,resizable=1,width=350,height=250")
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<input id="tbFirst" type="text" /> <button onclick="choose('tbFirst')">choose</button>
<input id="tbSecond" type="text" /> <button onclick="choose('tbSecond')">choose</button>
</body>
</html>
Look in function choose I'm sent an id of textbox to the popup window (don't forget to add dummy data at last of URL param like &dummy=avoid#)
Popup Page
<html>
<head>
<script>
function goSelect(data){
var idFromCallPage = getUrlVars()["id"];
window.opener.callFromDialog(idFromCallPage,data); //or use //window.opener.document.getElementById(idFromCallPage).value = data;
window.close();
}
function getUrlVars(){
var vars = [], hash;
var hashes = window.location.href.slice(window.location.href.indexOf('?') + 1).split('&');
for(var i = 0; i < hashes.length; i++)
{
hash = hashes[i].split('=');
vars.push(hash[0]);
vars[hash[0]] = hash[1];
}
return vars;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="#" onclick="goSelect('Car')">Car</a> <br />
<a href="#" onclick="goSelect('Food')">Food</a> <br />
</body>
</html>
I have add function getUrlVars for get URL param that the parent has pass to child.
Okay, when select data in the popup, for this case it's will call function goSelect
In that function will get URL param to sent back.
And when you need to sent back to the parent just use window.opener and the name of function like window.opener.callFromDialog
By fully is window.opener.callFromDialog(idFromCallPage,data);
Or if you want to use window.opener.document.getElementById(idFromCallPage).value = data; It's ok too.
My approach: use a div instead of a pop-up window.
See it working in the jsfiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/6RE7w/2/
Or save the code below as test.html and try it locally.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(window).load(function(){
$('.btnChoice').on('click', function(){
$('#divChoices').show()
thefield = $(this).prev()
$('.btnselect').on('click', function(){
theselected = $(this).prev()
thefield.val( theselected.val() )
$('#divChoices').hide()
})
})
$('#divChoices').css({
'border':'2px solid red',
'position':'fixed',
'top':'100',
'left':'200',
'display':'none'
})
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div class="divform">
<input type="checkbox" name="kvi1" id="kvi1" value="1">
<label>Field 1: </label>
<input size="10" type="number" id="sku1" name="sku1">
<button id="choice1" class="btnChoice">?</button>
<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="kvi2" id="kvi2" value="2">
<label>Field 2: </label>
<input size="10" type="number" id="sku2" name="sku2">
<button id="choice2" class="btnChoice">?</button>
</div>
<div id="divChoices">
Select something:
<br>
<input size="10" type="number" id="ch1" name="ch1" value="11">
<button id="btnsel1" class="btnselect">Select</button>
<label for="ch1">bla bla bla</label>
<br>
<input size="10" type="number" id="ch2" name="ch2" value="22">
<button id="btnsel2" class="btnselect">Select</button>
<label for="ch2">ble ble ble</label>
</div>
</body>
</html>
clean and simple.
(parent window)
<html>
<script language="javascript">
function openWindow() {
window.open("target.html","_blank","height=200,width=400, status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no");
}
</script>
<body>
<form name=frm>
<input id=text1 type=text>
<input type=button onclick="javascript:openWindow()" value="Open window..">
</form>
</body>
</html>
(child window)
<html>
<script language="javascript">
function changeParent() {
window.opener.document.getElementById('text1').value="Value changed..";
window.close();
}
</script>
<body>
<form>
<input type=button onclick="javascript:changeParent()" value="Change opener's textbox's value..">
</form>
</body>
</html>
use:
opener.document.<id of document>.innerHTML = xmlhttp.responseText;
