        if () {
           //execute a function but meanwhile send a response to index.php like this:
           echo '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">window.top.window.function();</script>';
            function ();

        } else {
            echo $something;
        }

    } else {
       echo $something;
    }

in page.php use parent.functionname

Ex.

index.php has a function show() you can access from page.php as parent.show()

---

like this:

echo '<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">parent.show();</script>';
