NYCPHP Meetup

[Jim Hendricks]

I don't know if I follow your problem correctly, but if I do, here's what I
do:

I never have a popup submit to the server, the form button on the popup
always passes the data from the popup form to the parent window form
through hidden fields, then submits on the parent and closes itself.

Is this any help?

Jim
