How can I get the value from a parent html page into a javascript popup page?

I have a php page where a date value is POSTed back to. From this php script, I want to forward that value to a javascript window. Can this be done?

The opened window should have access to the parent window through window.opener from there you can access your parent document.

Try something like this in your popup window:

alert(window.opener.document.getElementById('mydate').innerHTML);
