Hi,
I need to make  a call to another browser with some arguments.
The query will be of the form (www.site.com?id=1&val=10).
Now I am making the call to open window function to achieve this.

var win = open("www.site.com?id=1&val=10", "target" );

The target web site will update the database depending on the arguments.
I do not want to open a window to do this. I think there should be some
other way.
Any tips?

Also, I am encountering a strange problem if I close the window after the
call (win.close( ) ).
The database will not be updated by the target website if I close the window
after the call,
var win = open("www.site.com?id=1&val=10", "target" );
win.close();

I think this is the sideeffect of closing the window too early!

Thanks,
paramesh
