  If you open a child new form in a dialog you can obtain a parent form fields via JavaScript. Example:

  window.top.fd.field('Title').value()
  

  You can find more detail in the following thread:

  Hi Dimitry,

   

  Thanks for your reply and appologies I didn't come back to you earlier. What do you mean by child form? I thaught that we could passed info in the same form as we do when we pass a query string from the usrl. Is that right?

   

  Thanks

  [#2]: Actually, not. SharePoint truncates all unrecognized parameters from the query string when opens the specific form. Thus you should use the code from my previous message to obtain values from the parent form.

  So do I need to have two new forms? One parent and one child?

  Yes sure...

  The user will start by filling the first form. After they submit it and is approved they need to fill an other form from the same list and I need to pass 2 fields from the previous form ( from the list item is created before) to the new form. The forms are under the same list as content types. How do I pass those infromation in the new list?

  Hope this makes more sence.

   

  Thanks

  [#6]: Ok, now I see, thanks. Here you should add JavaScript code into the new form which requests field values of the previously created item via JSOM. Our support team can help you with this task, it will take about 200-300 support minutes depending on the number of columns. If you're interested, please drop the detailed description of the task to [email protected].

  If you iplement that for us, will it be something that we will be able to use in other scenarios or it will be something specific for that scenario?

  [#8]: It will be the script for the specific scenario but you will be able to adapt it to similar scenarios.
