Opening a popup from another popup not working

[Brendan Vogt]

Hi,

I am trying to open a window from a popup window.  But the window just opens up inside the other window.  What am I doing wrong wrong?

The first window is opened up like this:

<radW:RadWindowManager ID="rwm" runat="server">
  <Windows>
    <radW:RadWindow
      ID="rwCISLookup"
      Behavior="Close"
      Modal="true"
      Height="230px"
      Width="560px"
      runat="server" />
  </Windows>
</radW:RadWindowManager>

When I click on the wondow submit button, it opens the window inside this window.  I want this second window to be in front of the first window.

This is how the second window is called:

<radW:RadWindowManager ID="rwm" runat="server">
  <Windows>
    <radW:RadWindow
      ID="rwCISResults"
      Modal="true"
      Height="430px"
      OpenerElementId="<%# btnSearch.ClientID %>"
      OffsetElementId="<%# btnSearch.ClientID %>"
      Width="1000px"
      NavigateUrl="CISResults.aspx"
      runat="server" />
  </Windows>
</radW:RadWindowManager>

This needs to be done server side because I need to set a session variable in the first window.

Please can someone help?

Thanks
Brendan

This needs to be done server side because I need to set a session variable in the first window.  Javascript is not going to work.

Hi Brendan,

Like the standard popup, RadWindows are called and handled on the client only. If you want to open a RadWindow from within another one, you will have to output from the server a JavaScript code that would do that with the approach described in the KB article.
