I have a page where It is possible to luanceh more than one radwindow, I am creating these windows in the following way,
var popup = window.radopen(Url, null);
The user can click a button which will open window 'a', they can then do something else that will cause window 'b' to open.  When in window 'b' I would like to get hold of window 'a' to refresh the content.  I would guess a way to find this is to find the window which is not selected, which would be window 'a'.  I have no idea on how to do this, I can only seem to get hold of the current window when using GetRadWindow()
function GetRadWindow() {
    var oWindow = null;
    if (window.radWindow) oWindow = window.radWindow;
    else if (window.frameElement.radWindow) oWindow = window.frameElement.radWindow;
    return oWindow;
}
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

sorted, record the windows id's on creation, then you can reference them.

Hi Russell,

Basically, you could use the get_windows() method of the RadWindowManager to get a reference to a specific RadWindow. For example, the code bellow will close all RadWindows on the page, except the active one:

<form id="form1" runat="server">
<telerik:RadScriptManager ID="RadScriptManager1" runat="server" />
<telerik:RadWindowManager ID="RadWindowManager1" runat="server">
</telerik:RadWindowManager>
<script type="text/javascript">
    function closeAllButActive()
    {
        var windowManager = GetRadWindowManager();
        var allWindows = windowManager.get_windows();
 
 
        for (var i = 0; i < allWindows.length; i++)
        {
            var currentWindow = allWindows[i];
            if (!currentWindow.isActive())
            {
                currentWindow.close();
            }
        }
    }
 
    function openWin()
    {
        radopen("http://google.com", null);
    }
</script>
<button onclick="openWin(); return false;">
    open RadWindows</button>
<button onclick="closeAllButActive(); return false;">
    Close all but the active RadWindow</button>
</form>
</body>
</html>

Note that the closeAllButActive() function should be in the parent page, where the RadWindowManager is.

Kind regards,
