How to use the data passed to a window.

[Satish]

I'm opening a kendo window with a ajax content and I'm also passing some data into the window as shown below. 

 
if (!window.data("kendoWindow")) {
                  window.kendoWindow({
                      content: {
                          url: "selectcontact.htm",
                          data: {
                              op1: agencyId,
                              op2: agencyName
                          }
                      },
                      title: "Select a Contact",
                      actions: ["Refresh", "Close"],
                      visible: false,
                      modal: true,
                      close: onClose
                  });

Now within selectcontact.htm how do I access the op1 and op2 ? I have a kendo combobox thats bound to an oData service and I the need to pass op1 into the uri.

Assuming that you are not using any server-side technology, the selectcontact.htm page will not be able to use any of the data, because it is fetched through AJAX and is directly inserted in the page. However, because it is loaded in the same browser frame, the loaded content has access to any global variables and functions, so you might just use he agencyId (if it is global, or if you make it global). Note that providing some abstraction around the variables will prevent the global scope from being polluted.

How would you provide abstraction around the variable? My problems is that I am setting up everything inside of my document ready, $(function(){...}); But then i dont have acccess to the variables that i create.

It should be noted that i use a hacky method

I am using .NET

in the window call i pass in the url and the data:

        win.kendoWindow({<br>            content: { type: "POST", url: url, data: { "JSON": kendo.stringify(dataObjectToPass) }}<br>        }).data("kendoWindow").center().open();<br>

in my aspx I have a:

var JSON = jQuery.parseJSON('<%=Me.JSON %>');

in my code behind I have a:    

Public ReadOnly Property JSON As String<br>        Get<br>            Return HttpUtility.UrlDecode(CStr(Request("JSON")))<br>        End Get<br>    End Property
