Parent wont load new window.

[keithcorbin]

I have a parent window creating a child that has multiple links. Each link should open in the parent window. This is working the first time, but the second time you click on a link the parent looks like it is opening (status at the bottom shows loading the correct page) but the page is never displayed, any ideas. Here is the code:

parent.opener.top.location.href="/jcpc/SearchResult.jsp?SubsId="+url;

parent.opener.focus();

parent is only used with frames. If you are using separate windows, use window.opener to refer to the window the popup came from.

I have fixed it for all interested, the first time I open the window the parent does have frames on the second click it does not. I end up setting the Parent name attribute on the first click and using that as a reference for window.open as you suggest after that.
