Sorry for the late reply – thanks for the feedback (I got pulled off onto something else).
I am still getting the following error message:
[Exception… “'Syntax error, unrecognized expression: #[object HTMLTableElement]' when calling method: [nsIDOMEventListener::handleEvent]” nsresult: “0x8057001e (NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)” location: “” data: no]
In the child window I do the following:
var storeArray = [];
storeArray = jQuery('#' + window.opener.document.getElementById('list')).getDataIDs();
and get the above error.
The error message seems to suggest the jqGrid list does not exist but it has already loaded on the main page…..
Thanks
