Hi guys,

I have to ASPX pages A.aspx and B.Aspx. A.aspx has mail sending functionality [To,Cc,Subject and SendButton] To and CC are hyperlinks and also we have To and CC textboxes, the links will open a popup which has email ids with checkboxes loaded in radgrid. I'm trying to send the selected mailids to A.aspx page textbox from code behind of popup[B.aspx].
I'm using Page.ClientScript.RegisterStartupScript to call javascript of popup which in turn sets the value of A.aspx.But its not working.So please tell me which is the best way to achieve this.

Thanks

First of all, it's rarely a good practice to open a popup window. This is not inherently bad, but many users try to fight against annoying popup ads and will block popups using some popular browser plugin developed for such purposes.

But your problem is quite solvable. The thing is: a popup window and its parent are not independent; a popup window remembers it parent and can manipulate it in Javascript. The key to the solution is this:

The simple sample on the page referenced above shows how can you use it.

[EDIT]

Also, you can use window.parent: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_win_parent.asp[^].
