Page items are cleared when calling javascript function for a buton.

Question

Hello,
Can anyone please help me out with this issue.
I have a reports region with some editable items and in which I have a button enter errors which opens up an popup window, but for this button i also have save process which updates the report and also calls the javascript function popup window. The reason I am saving the report is because the values entered by user needs to be updated in the table or otherwise the page will be reloaded clearing all the values entered by the user when i click the button enter errors. One more thing is that I also have two hidden items (P1_LOAN and P1_HERITAGE) in the reports region.
Below is the javascript function which i am calling for the button and also setting the items P2_LOAN_NUMBER,P2_HERITAGE with the values &P1_LOAN.,&P1_HERITAGE.
function ErrorPopup()
popUp2('f?p=&APP_ID.:2:&SESSION.::&DEBUG.::P2_LOAN_NUMBER,P2_HERITAGE:&P1_LOAN.,&P1_HERITAGE.','_blank','scrollbars=0,left=200,menubar=0,resizable=0,width=400,height=500,toolbar=0,location=0,directories=0');
doSubmit('ENTER_ERRORS');
}And below is my pl/sql update process
BEGIN
FOR i IN 1 .. apex_application.g_f01.COUNT
LOOP
             IF WWV_FLOW_ITEM.MD5(                                                      
                                       APEX_APPLICATION.G_f10 (i) ,
                                       APEX_APPLICATION.G_f11 (i) ,APEX_APPLICATION.G_f12 (i) ,APEX_APPLICATION.G_f13 (i)) <> APEX_APPLICATION.G_F45 (i) THEN
-- Update tbl
          UPDATE sampl_tbl
          SET  col1     =      APEX_APPLICATION.G_f10 (i) ,
                     col2     =      APEX_APPLICATION.G_f11 (i) ,
                     col3     =      APEX_APPLICATION.G_f12 (i) ,
                     col4     =      APEX_APPLICATION.G_f13 (i)
               WHERE pkcol    =      APEX_APPLICATION.G_f04 (i)         
     END IF;
END LOOP;
COMMIT;
END;The only problem I have is, when I open up the popup window the hidden item values P1_LOAN and P1_HERITAGE are lost. Is their a way to set these item values within the session.
thanks,
