I'm new in javascript and I'm stuck here. Let's say I have a parent window and it has an input field as well as a button that opens a popup window. This popup window contains Images. I just need to copy image URL to that input in the parent window when I click on any image on the popup window. Any help please. Thanks
Edit:
This is my javascript code on the popup window
<script type="text/javascript"> function clicked(address) { window.parent.document.getElementById('copy_img').value = address.src; } </script>
HTML
<input type="text" name="copy_img" id="copy_img" size="133" /> <img border="0" onclick="clicked(this)" src="images/1.jpg" width="135" height="46"> <img border="0" onclick="clicked(this)" src="images/2.jpg" width="128" height="48"> <img border="0" onclick="clicked(this)" src="images/3.jpg" width="305" height="44">
Parent Window HTML Code
<input type="text" name="copy_img" id="copy_img" />
I Just Can't get it to work
