Hello Mac,

I used your code and prepared a simple test project, but I was not able to reproduce the problem. Basically the RadWindow control is an IFRAME and it behaves just like one. Could you please replace the RadWindow control with an IFRAME and test the same code inside it? For your convenience I have attached my project to this thread. In the project I have implemented the two approaches - by using a RadWindow and by using an IFRAME.
In case that you still experience the problem with RadWindow control and the same problem does not appears in the IFRAME control, could you please open a new support ticket and send us your full project? Once we have a better view over your exact setup we will do our best to provide a solution for you.

Hi Fiko,
You can close this ticket if you wish. I was able to pin down that the event was being caused by a float:left element within the parent ID tag. MSDN docs are here. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913788 . Essentially.. I don't know why.. the float element wrapping the radgrid would allow the radwindow to open but on clicking the javascript.print function within the radwindow it would crash. Once I isolated the float as being the culprit, I was able to reproduce the issue with expected results. Very strange, very annoying bug that was quite a few hours in determining the issue.
PS: the most difficult thing was finding the specific browser build that woud crash as other IE6.0.28/29 were just fine.

Good day.
mac
