[Solved] Refreshing parent page

[Sean Eby]

All, I am using the RadWindow to provide a popup selection for my users.  I have the popup working great, and I can refresh the parent page just fine.  The one thing I've noticed is that any textboxes on the parent page will lose any data that is in them when I refresh.  Shouldn't the normal page lifecycle occur after I run a 

.BrowserWindow.location.reload();

from Javascript to refresh the parent page?  I tried wrapping the entire page in an RadAjaxPanel, but I have the same problem.

Any ideas?

Hi Sean,

BrowserWindow.location.reload equals window.location.reload() - e.g. the effect is the same as when you hit the F5 key when you are in the context of the parent page. To be able to save the content in the textboxes, you should do a postback - for example you can use the __doPostback() function.


Kind regards,

Yes, that is exactly what I was needing to do.  I guess I was thinking that this would all be taken care of by wrapping the control in an AjaxPanel.

Thanks for your help!
