Hello All,

I'm trying to force my users to close a popup window before they can return to the Parent window. I more or less want to "lock" the parent window and force the user to fill in the info on the popup and hit submit, which in turn will close the popup and then allow the user to continue working on the parent window.

Dont use a popup window, it Will be blocked on more users than not as a potential malware threat
using css layers z-index
create a layer with
width /height of 100%
located at 0,0
z-index hugely >0
in css sit on top of all other elements, and containing the form
toggle the div/layer between
visible and focus by whatever onpage control/button/anchor you activate the form,
invisible by onsubmit for the form
