Unable to Close Popup window using ASP.Net

[GrantS]

I am having a problem closing a popup window opened modally. When I
try to close the window (when the user hits save button and the data
has been processed), the Popup window opens as a full screen as a new
window. The original window plus the Modally opened Pop remain in a
separate window.

What I want to do is close the popup and return to the original window
with its view state maintained.

The control use to fire the popup window and the one to save the
changes need to be a web server control.
The popup window needs to be modal.


*************** *************** *************** *************** ***************
The code I am using open the window with this control is:

private void butChangeOrder_ Click(object sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
if (!IsClientScrip tBlockRegistere d("OpenPopup" ))
{
RegisterClientS criptBlock("Ope nPopup", "<script
language=\"java script\">window .showModalDialo g('PopUpSortOrd er.aspx',null,' font-size:10px;dialo gWidth:43em;dia logHeight:40em,
toolbar=0,locat ion=0,directori es=0,status=no, menuBar=1,scrol lBars=no,resiza ble=no')</script>");
}
}

*************** *************** *************** *************** ***************

The code that I am using to close the Popup window is:

private void butSaveOrder_Cl ick(object sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
DataSavings dtSave = new CMSDataViewer.U tilities.DataSa vings ();
dtSave.SaveSort Orders(false,Hi ddenIds );

if( !Page.IsClientS criptBlockRegis tered ("ClosePopUp "))
{
RegisterClientS criptBlock("Clo sePopUp", "<script
language=\"java script\">functi on
CloseMe(){windo w.close();windo w.history.back( ); };</script>");
}
butSaveOrder.At tributes.Add("o nclick", "ClosePopUp()") ;
}


*************** *************** *************** *************** ***************
Hopefully someone has a solution in this regard.

Cheers.

Re: Unable to Close Popup window using ASP.Net

Try to write out the script directly to the page after the save of data.

<code>
private void butSaveOrder_Cl ick(object sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
DataSavings dtSave = new CMSDataViewer.U tilities.DataSa vings ();
dtSave.SaveSort Orders(false,Hi ddenIds );
Response.Write( "<script language=\"Java script\">window .opener =
self;window.clo se();</script>");
Response.End();
}
</code>

The window.opener = self statement is to bypass the annoying message box
that IE throws at you when trying to close a window from javascript.

Well, the button's onclick event should be wired to CloseMe(), not to
ClosePopUp (that's just the scripts key).

Another thing is that you call window.close() and then
window.history. back()... doesn't this mean you are trying to naviagate
backwards on a closed window?

Hope that helps,

Unable to Close Popup window using ASP.Net

You can try this

set <base target="_self"> for the popup window page and
then on click of the save button, save the data and then
do
RegisterStartup Script("winclos e","<script>win dow.close
();</script>");.

Hope this helps,

Excellent! Thanks folks for the suggestions. I played with each of the
suggestions and turns out the the suggestion by N does what exactly
what I need. Bingo!
Code below with the last line being the one for others to use in this
situation.
Patrick's suggestion helped in that it did not throw up the extra
form, so I could have used it in the save and gotten rid of the close
button. The user could still close using the control box.
I played with the things Juan suggested but no go.

*************** *************** *************** *************** *************** *************** *****

private void butSaveOrder_Cl ick(object sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
DataSavings dtSave = new CMSDataViewer.U tilities.DataSa vings ();
dtSave.SaveSort Orders(false,Hi ddenIds );


/*
//Suggestion 1 (Patrick): Saves but does not close PopUp(At least
does not Open another window).
Response.Write( "<script language=\"Java script\">window .opener
= self;window.clo se();</script>");
Response.End();


//Suggestion 2 (JUan):My Original with Navigate before Close and the
ClosePopUp used consistently
if( !Page.IsClientS criptBlockRegis tered ("ClosePopUp "))
{
RegisterClientS criptBlock("Clo sePopUp", "<script
language=\"java script\">functi on
ClosePopUp(){wi ndow.history.ba ck();window.clo se(); };</script>");
}
butSaveOrder.At tributes.Add("o nclick", "ClosePopUp()") ;
*/



//Suggestion 3 (N). This does the trick: - uses <base target="_self">
in page header:
RegisterStartup Script("winclos e","<script>win dow.close();</script>");

}

Thanks again. Grant
