Page x creates a pop-up window (page y). When page y is closed, I need an event to trigger on page x.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

You could use the top.opener.document to access the page x from page y:

on page x:

function onTrigger()...
...
window.open(page_y,...)

on page y:

top.opener.document.onTrigger();

or

window.opener.document.onTrigger();

or even do:

top.opener.document.form1.input1.val="xxx";
