    Are you sure this is your working code?

       obj = eval('window.opener.document' + 'Events');

    that would be the same as

      obj = window.opener.documentEvents;

    Assuming that is a typo, perhaps the problem is a race condition where the
    page is being refreshed before the insert is complete? It would depend on
    what the rest of the code looked like.

    Greetings

    I have an ASP page that uses a JavaScript openwindow call to pop-up a new
    windows. The new window has a field for the use to fill.

    The pop-up uses method=get and targets itself. The page process an insert to
    a SQL base and then does uses the following

    <script>
    function submitpage(url)
    {
        obj = eval('window.opener.document' + 'Events');
        obj.method="post";
        obj.action=url;
        obj.target="";
        obj.submit();
    }
    </script>
    <body onLoad="closeWindow()" onUnload="submitpage('<%=url%>')" >

    The problem I experience is on two machines, the page that starts the pop-up
    page does not refresh it's drop list (of the table that was successfully
    inserted.) after the pop-up page has closed. I have more than 100 machines
    that the code runs properly including my own development equipment. And I
    have not been able to discover a browser setting that seems to "break" this
    function.

    Any help is gratefully accepted.

    Marc
