I have a parent and child window.
the parent window contains an array parentArray.
this is the parent window:
Code:
<html>
<header>
<script language="javascript">
var parentArray = Array();
...
</script>
</header>
...
</html>the child window looks like this:
Code:
<html>
<header>
<script language="javascript">
function cutArray(){
window.opener.parentArray.splice(1,1);
}
</script>
</header>
<body onunload="cutArray()">
</body>
</html>
the parent window opens the child window. the child window can access the parent's array by: window.opener.parentArray
When the user closes out the child window, onunload calls cutArray() and splices parentArray of the parent window.
on FF this works fine but on IE, I can't do the splicing. any ideas why?
