NYCPHP Meetup

[Jim Hendricks]

I'll have to try and find some of my source for this.  Don't get me wrong, I
don't submit the one window to the other.  The submit button on the popup
executes a java script which does:

opener.someform.somehiddenfield.value = mypopup.someform.sometextfield.value

for each field.  Then opener.someform.submit();
