Question

I have this set of Javascript code that works fine in IE (any version), but won’t work on Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome. Can someone advise me why?

function returnData(strCode,strProgramCode,strName)
    {           
        parent.opener.document.all.txtCourseCode[7].value = strCode;      
        parent.opener.document.all.txtProgram[7].value = strProgramCode;                                                
        parent.opener.document.getElementById("txtCourseName8").innerHTML = strName;                

        window.close()
}

FYI, this Javascript is embedded into a .aspx page that was written using .NET Framework 1.1.

Edit Doesn’t work means: none of the lines executed although they were explicitly invoked.

Example: window.close() doesn’t close the window

Answer 1

document.all is an IE-only property, so obviously it won’t work in other browsers.

You shouldn’t use document.all anyway. By the look of things, you’re actually wanting:

parent.opener.document.getElementsByName('txtCourseCode')[7].value = strCode;
parent.opener.document.getElementsByName('txtProgram')[7].value = strProgramCode;
