Question

This doesn’t seem to work:

func = "getProductListings"; 
params = "{'user_id':1234,'short':true}"; 
window.opener[func](params);

can someone check my code please?

Answer 1

A few points you might want to check out:

• When a window is opened from another window, it maintains a reference to that first window as window.opener. If the current window has no opener, then this method returns NULL. Is there a parent window? … And does it have a getProductListings function defined?

• Does your getProductListings function expect an object as the first argument? In that case, you’d want to remove the double quotes from the params:

  params = {'user_id': 1234, 'short': true};
