Page Communication

On my main web page, I have a button that opens a browser window, this window contains a tree menu created with JS.
What I need to know is if I click on a link in the tree menu, is it possible to comunicate with the main page in such a way, that the main page follows the link and not the browser Window? If so, how?

Html page has a link that opens the window with the javascript tree, obviously this is a menu, I need this menu to control the main HTML Page.
Forgot to mention that the JS tree has been placed in a <div> tag in an HTML page.
It works ordinarily, but now it is in a browser window, and if i navigate noremally, it will continue to browse in that window, which is not what I want.
I know in HTML it would be "_parent" but this is a JS menu.

You can refer to the parent window via JavaScript as "opener".
However, if your JS menu simply contains/builds hyperlinks, you can still use the "target" attribute within those links, can't you?
You can also specify

You can also specify
<base target="_parent"> within the header on the page, so that all hyperlinks go to the parent page. |
