You can access controls of parent page using window.opener.document.getElementById. So by using it you can access parent page and do communication between child and parent page. For more information refer this[^] link. HTH

If you want to know in server side then pass a query string value ( ex: page1.aspx?ref=page2) and get the querystring value in server side using Request.QueryString["ref"]. Hope this will solve ur problem.
