Discussion on "JavaScript sending data between windows"

I recently worked on a system that needed to open a popup window. A specific action could be done on the popup window and the original window that invoked the popup required to receive the choice. This might sound a bit crazy to build, but it's easie...

I was implementing something similar today, and I encountered the problem that when the parent page is reloaded, the newWindow reference is lost. Is it possible to recover it again after a page reload?

Hmm I think after a reload this becomes super tricky. You could refetch the state window, but the other window side won't ever be able to communicate because of the security risks.

Ok, thanks for the clarification, great post.

Awesome article, Chris. Maybe we can format a question and add it at JavaScript Quiz?

Hey that's a super cool idea, would love that 💖
