I am still a bit confused by the documentation as it's a bit like launching an R & D project just to get to know the Telerik documentation (IMHO).

I have not done much javascript in the last few years and I find it quite difficult to differentiate between what is "normal" javascript/dhtml functions from the Telerik specific.
For instance,
windows.Close() does not take arguments, as clearly described in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms536367(VS.85).aspx

If I look for the arguments that RadWindow.close() take (on the client side), where do I find out?

The documentation does not say anything http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/window_programmingradwindowmethods.html other than the function exists... and I have just been lucky to find the answer in RadControlsAjaxCourseware.pdf towards p257 with the project \VS Projects\RealEstate\HowToModalDialog

Is there a less "lucky" way of finding these sort of answers?

Thanks

Eric

Hi Eric,

The parameter of the RadWindow's close() function is optional. It is used when you need to pass arguments to the OnClientClose event handler of the control ( to return some revalue to the parent page). In this event handler you can get the value of the argument by using the following approach :

    
            function OnClientClose(oWnd,args) 
        
            { 
        
               //get the transferred arguments 
        
               var arg = args.get_argument(); 
        
               alert(arg); 
        
            }

I hope this helps.
