I am building an order form with PHP and MySQL.



The PHP Form has an input box where the user types in a product code. In the event that the user does not know the product code, I want them to click on an image or button next to the input box, which opens a popup with a list of all product codes. they can then click on the product they want and the product code is passed from the popup to the input box on that table row.



I have the code of my page below and the image of the page it creates so you can get a feel for what I am wanting to acheive.



parent page



<table border=0  id=hor-minimalist-a> 

<tr>
<th valign=bottom>KVI</th>
<th valign=bottom>PACK CODE</th>
<th valign=bottom width=250>DESCRIPTION</th>
<th valign=bottom width=40>WHSE</th>
<th valign=bottom width=25>SU</th>

</tr>
<tr id=r1>
<td>
<input type=checkbox name=kvi1 id=kvi1 value=1>
</td>
<td>

<input type=button name=choice onClick=window.open('sku.php','popuppage','width=400,toolbar=1,resizable=1,scrollbars=yes,height=400,top=100,left=100'); value=?>

If you want a popup window rather than a <div />, I would suggest the following approach.



In your parent page, you call a small helper method to show the popup window:



<input type=button name=choice onClick=selectValue('sku1') value=?>


Add the following JS methods:



function selectValue(id)
{
// open popup window and pass field id
window.open('sku.php?id=' + encodeURIComponent(id),'popuppage',
'width=400,toolbar=1,resizable=1,scrollbars=yes,height=400,top=100,left=100');
}

function updateValue(id, value)
{
// this gets called from the popup window and updates the field with a new value
document.getElementById(id).value = value;
}


Your sku.php receives the selected field via $_GET['id'] and uses it to construct the parent callback function:



?>
<script type=text/javascript>
function sendValue(value)
{
var parentId = <?php echo json_encode($_GET['id']); ?>;
window.opener.updateValue(parentId, value);
window.close();
}
</script>


For each row in your popup, change code to this:



<td><input type=button value=Select onClick=sendValue('<?php echo $rows['packcode']; ?>') /></td>


Following this approach, the popup window doesn't need to know how to update fields in the parent form.
