 Update text input fields in a child window - need help

I am trying for the first time to update the fields in a child window and I
am having difficulty in figuring out how to do it.

I have read through the documentation on window.open and opener but I am
still not able to fill in a text field on a web page that I have opened.

Simply stated, I have web page 'A' that has a button that the user will push
and this in turn should open a new window, load web page 'B', and prefill
the text field on that web page for the user so that they may just push
Submit.

I am still reading through the documentation and trying to do this myself
but I would greatly appreciate anyone being able to provide me a very simple
example of this or perhaps simply some input.

Thanks

If you are using text areas, you can do

<textarea name=foo wrap=physical>This is your default text</textarea>
