You may need to fiddle around with this a bit. window.showModalDialog can return a value (see the
returnValueproperty), which could be stuffed into a variable, or the value a hidden INPUT field for subsequent posting back, or used in a querystring to load another page (setlocation.href). Alternatively, post-back in the modal dialog (remember to set<base target=_self>), and store the values in a database or something.

I can't remember if a modal dialog passes on the parent but give this a bash:
