Hi,

Below is a function in my aspx page called Parent.aspx.I'm calling it on click event of a button on this page.
function fnParentFrmSubmit()
        {
            document.body.insertAdjacentHTML("beforebegin","<i nput type=text id='txtBox' value='Y'>");
            document.Form1.submit();
        }

<input type="button" value="Submit" id="btnSubmit" onclick="javascript:fnParentFrmSubmit()">

...And the below function is in another page called Child.aspx which I'm calling on Page_Load event

function fnChildWinLoad()
        {
            alert(window.opener.document.forms[0].txtBox.value)

        }

When the user clicks on the submit button,I am submitting the form thru' client side javascript and then in the code behind

of this page,I am opening a Child.aspx using Response.write("<script language='javascript'>window.open(Child.aspx,'abcd ')")

I am creating a textbox element dynamically and then trying to access its value in the child element.
But I am getting javascript error 'window.opener.document.forms[0].txtBox.value' is not an object or is null.
I tried using window.opener.document.getElementById("txtBox").va lue,but still I get the same javascript error.

Any idea where am I going wrong..??

Thanks in advance..

You are doing the reverse of what you are trying to do. To access a textbox in a popped up window from the main window, you must do this:
