Jquery control parent window from child window

Question

I\'m playing around with a few ideas for a project, and one of them needs to somehow have communication between 2 different browser pages/windows/tabs. My goal is this:

Answer 1

Yes, actually that is possible. If you use window.open() in JavaScript, you can use window.opener. and submit whatever requests you would normally make. Like:

window.opener.document.getElementById('id').innerHTML = "hello";

or using jQuery,

$(window.opener.document).find('#tableInParent').html("hello");
