Hi, In my application, when user clicks on a link, I need to show a form in a popup window. Popup has to close when form is submitted. If the form data is valid then I need to go to action A in main browser else I need to go to action b. how do I do it i.e. redirect the main window? Thanks. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

I think it''s something like "parent.location = ..." in the onload function of your popup... google should be able to fill in the detail nicely. b Rm Rm wrote:> Hi, > > In my application, when user clicks on a link, I need to show a form in > a popup window.

But the form is submitted to an action in rails. From my rails action, view A or B appear in popup. what I need is that popup should close when form is submitted, and the main browser should either be redireced to A or B.

Form gets submitted -> depending on wiehter form was valid or not,
rails will render a (slightly) different view.
it should render something like this:
<head>
<script>
function redirect_and_close(newlocation) {
parent.location.href = newlocation;
window.close;
}
</script>
</head>
<body
onLoad="redirect_and_close(''http://new.location.com'')">
... your view''s body code here ...
</body>
not sure if my Javascript is 100% correct, but you should get the idea
and google should do the rest, you wil find much about parent &
location easily.
