controlling parent windows from a child window

[projectalpha]

how can I control a parent window from a child window.

The child window has a form w/ a form action = "page.php?afeafe". When submit is pressed, I want page.php?afeafe to appear in the parent window instead of the child window. Thanks for your help.

in the child window use code such as :

window.opener.location.href = "page.php?afeafe";

thanks for the help. I needed to have the link in the Form tag.

I did figure it out for anyone who wants to know. In the form tag in the child window, I did a target=main, and in the parent window in the js function tag, I put a "self.name = "main";". Thanks for the help.
