Using QueryString

[Franco Cipriano]

I am trying to pass a value from a pop up window back to the parent page. The query string is successful, but it wont go back to the previous page, but instead the pop-up window will redirect to the previous page with the values. What I want to do is close the pop-up window, and go back to the previous page with the values. Here are the code that I currently have: //this is action performed when the button to submit the values are clicked

protected void btnSelect_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
GridViewRow row = grdAll.Rows[SelectedProductIndex];

        name = row.Cells\[2\].Text.ToString();
        Industry = row.Cells\[3\].Text.ToString();
        SubInd = row.Cells\[4\].Text.ToString() ;
        geo = row.Cells\[5\].Text.ToString();
        location = row.Cells\[6\].Text.ToString();

        Page.Response.Redirect("frmMain.aspx?name=" + name + "&industry=" + Industry + "&subInd=" + SubInd + "&geo=" + geo + "&location=" + location);

    }

//this is the page_load of the parent window

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
if (!IsPostBack)
{
if (Page.Request.QueryString["name"] != null)
{
txtMPSname.Text = Page.Request.QueryString["name"].ToString();
txtLoc.Text = Page.Request.QueryString["location"].ToString();
DlstGeo.Text = Page.Request.QueryString["geo"].ToString();
DlstInd.Text = Page.Request.QueryString["industry"].ToString();
DlstSubInd.Text = Page.Request.QueryString["subInd"].ToString();
}
}
}

I THINK U SHOULD TRY THIS :-O U SHOULD CREATE A BUTTON INSIDE THE POP-UP PAGE NAMED "BACK", THEN GIVE IT THIS CODE: Form1 frm2 = new Form1(); this.Hide(); frm2.Show(); frm2.Region = this.Region;

Hi, Instead of "Response.Redirect()" use the javascript function like this.

function closeFrm(val1,val2,val3,val4,val5)
{
self.close();
window.opener.location.href = "frmMaain.aspx?name=val1&location=val2&geo=val3&industry=val4&subInd=val5";
}

and call this function through code as below.

ScriptManager.RegisterClientSciptBlock(this,this.GetType(),"Myscript","closeFrm('"+ name +"','"+ location +"','"+ geo +"','"+ Industry +"','"+ SubInd +"'");

Hope it works.

I'm getting an error :

Error 1 'System.Web.UI.ScriptManager' does not contain a definition for 'RegisterClientSciptBlock'

on this line

ScriptManager.RegisterClientSciptBlock

thanks,

That's a typo.  Obviously he meant:

ScriptManager.RegisterClientScriptBlock
