Use "top" keyword for accessing parent page.

You can do it with javascript. For example: add the following code on the child page
function Test() { var parentTextBox = parent.document.getElementById("TextBox1"); //TextBox1 is the ID of TextBox on ParentPage. alert(parentTextBox.value); }I am learning english -

AFAIK, you can't access the control of parent page from Code-behind. So, you have to use Javascript for accessing the parent page. After that, you have to look a tick to access this client-side value from Code-behind.. For example: There are one textbox called Textbox1 and IFRAME in Default.aspx. There is another page called Default2.aspx which suppose to be shown in IFRAME of Default.aspx page. We add one button called Button1 in Default2.aspx (ChildPage). We wanna get the value of Textbox1 that is placed in Default.aspx (parent page) from Default2.aspx (childpage). So, we have to write the following ocde in Form_load event of default2.aspx. Button1.Attributes.Add ("onclick", "alert(top.document.getElementById('TextBox1').value);"); Yeah. I know that it's not exactly what you want. But the idea is that you have to get the value of controls of the parent page by using Javascript. Then, try to find the way to access the those values from Code-behind. (Using Server-side hidden field is one of the communication between client-side script and server-side script. ) Hope it helps.
