Closing and refeshing a page upon leaving a RadWindow

[Chad Johnson]

Greetings,

Ok, so here is what's going on.  I'm using a RadGrid with a RadToolBar to display some data.  On the toolbar, I have a button called Deny Membership.  Upon clicking it, it pops up a RadWindow with two labels in it, along with a RadTextbox and an ASP:Button.  Upon clicking the button, the page does some database calls to delete a user out of a table.

Ok, here is the part I'm having trouble with.  Once that is done, at the end of the Click Event, I have a label's (the first one on the page) text set to the following:

lblReason.Text = "<script>RefreshParentPage()</" + "script>";

That works fine, so the page starts that function as follows:

<script type="text/javascript">
            function GetRadWindow() {
                var oWindow = null;
                if (window.radWindow)
                    oWindow = window.radWindow;
                else if (window.frameElement.radWindow)
                    oWindow = window.frameElement.radWindow;
                return oWindow;
            }

            function RefreshParentPage()
            {
                GetRadWindow().BrowseWindow.location.reload();
            }
        </script>

This is an example that I found on the Telerik site to close out a RadWindow and refresh the parent page.  The problem is, I get a javascript error on GetRadWindow().BrowseWindow, saying it is null or not an object.  I'm unsure what to do with this.  Any ideas?  Thanks.

Hey Chad,

This code works for me on my page:

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

            function Cancel_Clicked() {
                var oWindow = GetRadWindow();
                oWindow.close();
                top.location.href = top.location.href;
            }

Then you just set the Cancel_Clicked (or whatever more sensical thing you name it to) to your button, etc:

<button onclick="Cancel_Clicked(); return false">Back to main page</button>

So instead of throwing a script, you could just call this function at the end of your click event and viola, it should work. :)

Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately, I was looking to automatically close the page.  I did however come up with a solution with a touch of help from a coworker.  When I do RefreshParentPage(), I did the following.

function RefreshParentPage()
            {
                GetRadWindow().Close();
                parent.location.reload(true);
            }

This just simply closes the window and refreshes the original page, which is what I needed done.
