Request.Form["__EVENTTARGET"] is null while __doPostBack() on close a window in clientside

[Abhi]

Hello,
I have a MDI web form and dynamically creating new radwindows inside that MDI form. I want to some operations on close (X) of that window. For that i have added RadWindow1.OnClientClose = "OnClientCloseClick"; . In OnClientCloseClick event, i have called __doPostBack() in order to implement my logic. On closing window, postback is working. But when i am checking  Request.Form["__EVENTTARGET"] , it's value becomes null. When i am doing the same in a normal aspx page(no windowmanager here), it is showing some value.
             In MDI form  i have added new window dynamically.
    protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!Page.IsPostBack)
            {
                RadWindow RadWindow1 = new RadWindow();
                RadWindow1.ID = "RadWindow1";
                RadWindow1.VisibleOnPageLoad = true;
                RadWindow1.OnClientClose = "OnClientCloseClick";
                RadWindow1.NavigateUrl = String.Format("Default.aspx?ID=" + Request.QueryString["ID"]);
                RadWindowManager1.Windows.Add(RadWindow1);
}
}
JS
 function OnClientCloseClick(sender, args) {
                   __doPostBack('SaveSettingOnClose', 'OnClose');
                   }
function __doPostBack(eventTarget, eventArgument) {
           document.Form1.__EVENTTARGET.value = eventTarget;
           document.Form1.__EVENTARGUMENT.value = eventArgument;
           document.Form1.submit();
        }
HTML
<input type="hidden" name="__EVENTTARGET" value="">
    <input type="hidden" name="__EVENTARGUMENT" value="">

---------------
In Default.aspx (new window created)
in page load
 if (Request.Form["__EVENTTARGET"] == "SaveSettingOnClose")
            {

                SaveSettingOnClose();

            }
Here Request.Form["__EVENTTARGET"] becomes null. so control is not going inside the if block.

Please provide me solution to solve this issue.

Thanks
Abhi

OnClientCloseClick is in the context of the parent page and the postback happens in the parent page. This means that the page you load inside the RadWindow will not be posted back. If your RadWindow is viisible on page load with the main page then the content page will be loaded anew and __EventTarget will be empty, of course.

It seems you need to initiate the postback in the content page, so you need the approach from this article: http://www.telerik.com/help/aspnet-ajax/window-programming-calling-functions.html.

Hi rdmptn,

thank you for your reply. Now it is working fine.

In MDI.aspx

function OnClientCloseClick(sender, args) {
                var oWnd = GetRadWindowManager().getWindowByName("RadWindow1");
                oWnd.get_contentFrame().contentWindow.SaveSettingOnClose();
            }
if (!Page.IsPostBack)
            {
                RadWindow RadWindow1 = new RadWindow();
                RadWindow1.ID = "RadWindow1";
                RadWindow1.VisibleOnPageLoad = true;
                RadWindow1.OnClientClose = "OnClientCloseClick";
                RadWindow1.NavigateUrl = String.Format("Default.aspx?ID=" + Request.QueryString["ID"]);
                 RadWindowManager1.Windows.Add(RadWindow1);
}

In default.aspx

function SaveSettingOnClose() {
            __doPostBack('SaveSettingOnClose', 'OnClose');
        }

Thanks
Abhi
