Question

well the question is enough explained can it be done.

what I am trying to do is to get data from a popup and onclose I want to send the content I retrieved to a php controller for processing.

But I dont want to use jquery library, because it is creating a conflict for me.

Update

window.onbeforeunload = confirmExit;
function confirmExit()
{        

    var a = document.getElementsByTagName("div");
    for (i = 0; i < a.length; i++) {           
        if(a[i].className == 'Ymacs-frame-content'){
            var b = a[i].getElementsByTagName("div").innerHTML;             
        //alert(b);
        }             
    }

//Ajax should be here

        window.onbeforeunload = reloadOpener;

        if (top.opener && !top.opener.closed) {
            try {
                opener.location.reload(1); 
            }
            catch(e) {  }
            window.close();
        }
    }
    window.ununload=function() {
        reloadOpener();


}

You can just use jquery-less AJAX:

var a = new XMLHttpRequest();
a.open("GET","myscript.php?var=foo&othervar=bar",true);
a.onreadystatechange = function() {
    if( this.readyState == 4) {
        if( this.status == 200) {
            // data sent successfully
            // response is in this.responseText
        }
        else alert("HTTP error "+this.status);
    }
};
a.send();

Alternatively, you can create an iframe tag and point it to the right page. You can even create a form and post it to the frame if needed.
