[Javascript] Closing pop-up window on form submit

<P>Pass the form results to the processor script in the opener window. End your processor script with a redirect to your original page. This will a) process your form and b) handle your reload.</P></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>From: Jay Wright 
<P>I have created a small set of web pages, that will open a pop-up window with </P>
<DIV></DIV>javascript, present the user a form, and then, on submit, close the pop-up 
<DIV></DIV>window and reload the main site page. 
<DIV></DIV>Below is the form code that I am using. This works, except, of course, that 
<DIV></DIV>the data is never POSTED to /content_upload.jsp. The window closes and the 
<DIV></DIV>"opener" web page is reloaded with "/main_page.jsp", but the data is never 
<DIV></DIV>processed. 
<DIV></DIV>What is the work around. Is there something I can do in the form that will 
<DIV></DIV>allow the post to take place before closing the page. Or is there something 
<DIV></DIV>I can do in the /content_upload.jsp that would do the processing and then 
<DIV></DIV>close the window? 
<DIV></DIV>Looking for a JavaScript guru to lend a little advice. Thanks, 
<DIV></DIV>Jay

<DIV></DIV>PS. Yes, I do need enctype to be multipart, this form is simplified, but 
<DIV></DIV>many of them load images. 
<DIV></DIV>
<FORM action=/content_upload.jsp method=post DIV <>enctype="multipart/form-data"&gt; 
<DIV></DIV><INPUT name=data><BR>
<DIV></DIV>input type="submit" name="submit" value="Finish" 
<DIV></DIV>onClick="self.close();opener.location.href='/main_page.jsp'"&gt;<BR>
<DIV></DIV></FORM>
