Well, it certainly seems like it would solve the problem (ie, the
parent window would be doing the actual submitting to the server, and
thus would get the redirect properly).  However, I had no idea that you
could submit one window to another :)  By chance could you post (attach
a text file if it'd be messy in an email) a quick example?

Thanks Jim,
