Question

I am currently working on a php e-mail system. I created a javascript pop-up page where I can add users (mail addresses). Now I want to post the selected user(‘s) from the javascript pop-up window to open the website of course I get the page where you want to post in the pop up to see.

Now I want to now, if there is click on the submit than close the popup and allows the data to the open web page whit post?

How can i do this??

you might want to look to the overlay plugin at jquery tools. Pop-ups are blocked by the browser most of the times. And imo an overlay is a more elegant solution. Furthermore, you can just post your form as you would normal do on a webpage, nu extra js needed there!

— edit; when reading your question more closely; you don’t even need to post the page! Just assign a click event to the submit button (which doesn’t necessarily needs to be a submit button). In your event function you can read out the filled in addresses (or other information), paste it into the desired fields (whether it be a form field or just a regular div) and close the overlay again. Now you don’t even need a page refresh!
