[Solved] ReOpening Rad Window

[Mick]

Hi I have a situation where I call a RadWindow to open using javascript within a user control.
This works fine the first time I call the window to open, however, if I call it again, then I get a javascript error. My code is as follows:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
            function openRadWindow()
            {

                // Get the Details of the postcode textbox
                var txt = document.getElementById("<%=txtAppPostcode.ClientID %>").value;
                if(txt == ''){
                    alert('A partial address must be entered');
                    return;
                }
                // Open Our Rad Window
                var oWnd = radopen("pointer.aspx?SearchText=" + txt, "rwPointer" );

                oWnd.Skin = "Vista";
                oWnd.Center();
                document.getElementById("<%=txtAppPostcode.ClientID %>").value = '';
            }
        </script>

I read somewhere that it has something to do with the ID of the window being opened, so I tried to set the window ID from javascript using the following code:

<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
            function openRadWindow()
            {
                 var dt = new Date();
                // Get the Details of the postcode textbox
                var txt = document.getElementById("<%=txtAppPostcode.ClientID %>").value;
                if(txt == ''){
                    alert('A partial address must be entered');
                    return;
                }
                // Open Our Rad Window
                var oWnd = radopen("pointer.aspx?SearchText=" + txt, "rwPointer" );
                oWnd.ID = dt.getMilliseconds();
                oWnd.Skin = "Vista";
                oWnd.Center();
                document.getElementById("<%=txtAppPostcode.ClientID %>").value = '';
            }
        </script>

But this didn't work either. I need the user control to be reusable, so if anyone can tell me where I am going wrong, I would be grateful.
Kind Regards

Hi Mick,

Can you please provide more details about your setup?

1. What is your RadWindowManager / RadWindow declaration?
2. How do you call the openRadWindow() function?
3. What is the exact error that you receive?
