I am making a form for my site and need little help with the js. I wasn't sure if this topic goes in javascript forum or phpnuke forum, so admin/mods please move it to appropriate forum.

I am using the file modules.php?name=Forums&file=search&mode=searchuser&popup=1 to open a popup and then search for a user (as done in buddylist and forum's admin area).

so far, I have made a form in which I have a few text boxes and I have added these "Find Username" buttons next to all the text boxes. The button opens the popup fine and am able to find the username, but my problem is.....how to send that selected username to the corresponding text box?


My code in php so far
echo"<form name=\"some_form\" action=\"final.php\" method=\"post\"><table>";

echo"<tr><td>username1</td><td><input type=\"text\" name=\"cat1\" class=\"post\" size=\"20\"><input type=\"submit\" name=\"usersubmit\" value=\"Find a username\" class=\"liteoption\" onClick=\"window.open('modules.php?name=Forums&file=search&mode=searchuser&popup=1', '_phpbbsearch', 'HEIGHT=250,resizable=yes,WIDTH=400');return false;\" /></td></tr>";
echo"<tr><td>Username2</td><td><input type=\"text\" name=\"cat2\" size=\"20\"></td></tr>";
echo"<tr><td><input type=\"hidden\" name=\"uname\" value=\"$username\"><input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\"></td></tr>";



Thank You

You want to be able to select a name from another popup window and have it appear in a new popup window in a textarea? Or is it all in one popup?

I am trying to put a button on a page which opens a popup for searching username and returns the username to the original page. It has been already implemented in nuke.

Example: (find username button)

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function refresh_username(selected_username)
{
   opener.document.forms['post'].username.value = selected_username;
   opener.focus();
   window.close();
}
//-->
</script>


Place that in the popup. And make the textarea's

<input type="text" name="username">


If you use more then one your going to have to change the themes/YOUR_THEME/forums/search_username.tpl and add the javascript again but rename the variables like so

<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function refresh_username2(selected_username2)
{
   opener.document.forms['post'].username2.value = selected_username2;
   opener.focus();
   window.close();
}
//-->
</script>


<input type="text" name="username2">


Not tested but I dont see why it wouldnt work. Let me know.
