bootstrap模态框之间的数据交互,使用Bootstrap将数据从模态传递到父窗口

As an example, I have a page that when loads, lists all employees. There is a button on the page that when clicked, initializes a (bootstrap) modal with a form. I populate the form, and click 'Submit'. If the insert was successful, I get the json object back as a response so that I can add the newly created employee to the list - which is behind the modal - without a page refresh.

Everything is working fine. I am getting the json back - and I'm ready to send the data back to the parent window. I knew it would be somewhat tricky, but this SO post gave me hope.

jQuery

Employee.createEmployee(function (response) {

$(window.opener.document).find('#mytable').html($.parseJSON(response));

});

So far all I'm able to do is get this error back:

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property 'document' of null
