Hi,
this is a javascript question.
You will not find a solution on this forum.
You have to search in a javascript forum.
In your popup window you will have to add onChange to your struts tag.
This must call a function which sets the value of the selected drop down in the field of the main window (see window.opener).
function xxx()
{
var selDropDownValue = document.forms[0].elements['yyy.x'].options[document.forms[0].elements['yyy.x'].selectedIndex].value;
//get selected drop down value
window.opener.document.forms[0].elements['xxx.z'].value = selDropDownValue;
//to set the value of the in the main window
window.close();
// to close the current window
}
Hope this helps you.
