Ok, I'm not the best at JavaScript and need some help.
I was thinking of creating a page/frame that would run a command on another window.* At the moment, all I want it to do is
Code:
window.clearTimeout();
However, the windows I would be using are created from Gmail. A look at the source showed me that the target was "_blank" and there wasn't really a name specified. Is there a way to either (1)fetch the name of that window or (2)do something to that window without knowing the name?
*Hopefully, on any and all windows. |

| Sorry, you cannot do anything to windows you don't own, meaning you can only modify the window that is running your JavaScript and any that your window will Create including of course any frames that may be in these windows. |

Yeah, I had a nagging feeling that would be the case...
But if I created a created a page that opened the page I wanted to modify, would the parent then be able to mess with the child? Then I would just have to find some way to quickly open the child link in the parent page. |
