How do I post hidden variables to another form from a popup?

aaa

I am bringing up a popup which has a couple of fields that the user enters.
I fill the hidden fields then submit and close the popup which then reverts
back to my main form, which retrieves the hidden vars and does the database
operation. Seems straight forward enough but I have run into a few stumbling
blocks including submitting then closing the popup and reverting control
back to the main form to pick up the variables.

Someone has to have done this. Any help is appreciated.

Encapsulate whatever you want to pass back from the popup to the caller into
one object and pass it in window.returnValue property.

Please ask more specific questions. What did you try and what problems did
you encounter?

I did put specifically what I was having trouble with:

"submitting then closing the popup and reverting control
back to the main form to pick up the variables"
