Close RadWindow from within itself

How to Close a RadWindow from within itself.
the tradition javascript: window.close() does not seem to work.  I also tried redirecting to another html page that does the same thing but no go.

The examples show the source code for the parent page, but the the code on the radwindow page, so it is hard to follow though the path of the program execution.

Hello Clint,

To close a RadWindow from within itself, you need to:

1. get a backreference to the parent rad window
2. call its close() method.

e.g.:

function GetRadWindow()
    {
       var oWindow = null;
       if (window.radWindow) oWindow = window.radWindow;
       else if (window.frameElement.radWindow) oWindow = window.frameElement.radWindow;
       return oWindow;
    }

function CloseWindow()
    {
        var oWindow = GetRadWindow();
        oWindow.close();
    }

As for the second part of your post, all dialogs are available in the C:\Program Files\telerik\RadControls 'Prometheus' for ASPNET Q2 2007\Live Demos\Window\Examples's subfolders. You can also see the source of the dialogs by right-clicking on them and choosing View Source from the context menu.


I hope this helps.
