Dynamic Modal Window Titles

[Assia]

I'm currently trying to set a modal window title dynamically from my stored procedure search and it works fine when I add it to the <UpdateControls><telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl> but even though it displays as it should, the window refuses to close now. I tried setting an individual UpdateControl just for the modal window but that did not work as well. A friend of mine suggested somehow using JavaScript to $find("modalComment.ClientID"); but I've never coded in javascript so this poses a bit of an issue to me. Has anyone else tried to set a dyanamic modal window titles from the backend code were able to close the window successfully?
 What I currently have is:

            <telerik:AjaxSetting AjaxControlID="gvSearchResults">
                <UpdatedControls>
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="gvSearchResults" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="modalComment" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="rptComments" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="modalStatus" />
                    <telerik:AjaxUpdatedControl ControlID="rptStatus" />
                </UpdatedControls>
            </telerik:AjaxSetting>

This displays my title and dynamic content just as is should.

In my actual column that I want to call the window from an image button:

<telerik:GridTemplateColumn UniqueName="Title" HeaderText="Title" InitializeTemplatesFirst="false" SortExpression="Title">
                        <ItemTemplate>
                            <table cellspacing="0" width="100%">
                                <tr>
                                    <%#Eval("Title") %> <asp:ImageButton ID="imgButton" runat="server" ImageUrl="~/images/icons/16/message_add.png" OnClick="fillModalComment" />
                                </tr>
                            </table>
                        </ItemTemplate>
                        <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Left" />
                    </telerik:GridTemplateColumn>

 and the working title code on the backend is:

        public void fillModalComment(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            int reqID = 0;
            reqID = int.Parse(((ImageButton)sender).CommandArgument);

            rptComments.DataSource = Comments.GetComments(reqID);
            rptComments.DataBind();

            MainSearch ms = new MainSearch(reqID);
            string title = "Comments on " + ms.Title;

            int len = ms.Title.Length;

            if (title.Length < 40)
                modalComment.Title = title;
            else
                modalComment.Title = title.Substring(0, 40) + "...";

            modalComment.Show();
        }

Any ideas that may avoid the javascript? Or is javascript a necessity in this case?

Thanks in advance.
