The best way is to open the child withow from javascript, so that you don;t need to redirect to another page.

Alternative suggestion, when you select something in next(child) page, get the data and pass it to the 1st page through
querystring
Forms Request
--cookiie
--session
The last two (cookie/session) is not needeed in this situation.
that means you need to persist your data in 2nd page.

In the 1st page check the querystring value and if you find a value set it in the text box.

Hope this helps.
cheers

My child window is working properly but i don't want to get it through cookie,session and querystring.Please suggest something else.

Your child window in in aspx. Right?
If yes, when you moved to child window, you lost the 1st page state. You have no choice rather than to persist data. Have you tried Request.Forms

I think the best way to pass it will be in form of session variable. Since you are opening the child window as a popup, IMHO, i cant think of any other way this can be done.
