You're mixing a lot of things together there that cloud the question. I'm
going to assume that you're talking about client-side script (not
server-side JavaScript via some CGI process).
If that's the case then, no - you can't do this in a normal application.
The browser security model will allow you to open the popup window or
include a remote page in a frame or iFrame but it will not allow script from
the two sites to "touch" one another. This would be a big (VERY BIG)
security issue. It's a no-no.
That being said you COULD access the remote site from the server-side and
pass the results to your client-side script (possibly via some AJAX-style
programming which would allow you to do this without a full-page refresh).
But there's just no way to do this, legally, with the current browser
security models (some browsers support reduced security models as options
like IE's "HTA" container... but they're not very common and would create
other issues for you).
