Create a hidden field on the opener page, so that when you 'submit' in the popup window, it writes the values to the hidden field. You can then work with that value in codebehind.

hi mendhak,

thanks, but I dont really understand what you mean with create a hidden field, so far this what i have

wfrmMain.aspx

HTML Code:

---

<INPUT type="button" value="New DatabaseGroup" name="btnDG" onclick  = "showDlgDG()">


<SCRIPT>
        var sDGName="";
        function showDlgDG()
        {
                showModelessDialog("dlgDG.aspx",window,"status:false;dialogWidth:300px;dialogHeight:300px");
        }
       
        function UpdateDGName()
        {
                idg.innerText  =sDGName;
        }

                </SCRIPT>

dlg.html

HTML Code:

---

<INPUT        type="text" size="25" name="txtDG">
 <INPUT type="button" value="Ok" name="btnOk" onclick="getDGName();window.close();">

<SCRIPT>
        function getDGName()
        {
                var sData =dialogArguments;
                sData.sDGName = txtDG.value;
                sData.UpdateDGName();
        }
                </SCRIPT>

first it gives me error that txtDG is undefined...hmmm

then next if this works how can my code behind get the value?

Thanks so much!
