How can I add a parameter to a select box in a parent window using jquery?

Question

In my child window I have

$('#opfile').addOption("someval",sometext");

Problem: #opfile is the parent window, which I cannot pass to it

I tried

window.opener $ ('# opfile') addOption ("someval", SOMETEXT "); ..

but no luck with any ideas?

Update

Cheating, but I got the above to work, it may have been caching something.

Thanks for the suggestions

try this by changing the array in parameters

window.opener.document.getElementById ("opfile"). options [0] = new Option ("someval", sometext ");

This might be helpful.

While this is not directly related to the example selection box, concepts can be used here.

I will watch this space in case anyone has a better solution.
