I am building a layout with 2 frames. I am also using pop-up windows for some info. Can I start/stop a timeline in one of the main window frames from the remote pop-up window?

If this can be done, could you point towards decent instructions on how to do it?
 
All you need to do is reference it in Javascript.

For example:

Opener :


<script>
function lanuch(foo) {
window.open(foo)
}
</script>

<a href=&quot;javascript:lanuch('opener.htm')&quot;>hello</a>


Opened window :


<script>
function gourl(foo) {
opener.location = foo;
}
</script>

<a href=&quot;javascript:gourl('page.htm')&quot;>Open this url in the window I was opened from</a>

Regards

Big Dave
