I know that I can access form object in Javascript by doing:
onClick="document.myForm.myText.value='it works'"
However when I do this from a child windows generated from a parent window, it doesn't work at all. I have to do it following way:
onClick="this.value='it works'"
Why I can only use 'this' ?

I see that you haven't received any responses. Could be that your request is not very clear.
Are you trying to access a form field in a child window from the parent, in the parent window from a child, or in the child window from the child?
