I have this very simple Javascript to write on a text area when the link is clicked:
Ok, I wrote you a sample you can check at http://jsfiddle.net/zzdAL/
$(document).ready(function()
{
popup = window.open("http://fiddle.jshell.net");
$("#input1").click(function() {
try {
popup.document.window.alert(1);
}
catch (e) { alert(e.message); }
});
}
);
It only runs an alert on the popup, but you can do whatever you want with the popup, assuming you have the necessary rights (needs to be the same domain I believe).
The most simple is to write a function in your popup and call it from the opener.
