passing values from chil pop up to parent

Hello Everyone,
I am trying to pass the value from my child window to my parent window. I
don't get the value from child to my parent when I refresh my parent page,
if I don't refresh my parent page then I get the value frtom my child window
.
Below is the code in my parent window and child page. I need to refresh my
parent page because once the page refreshes and the child window closes, I
want some method to execute
btnSubmit.Attributes.Add("onclick", "window.open('newForm.aspx' ,
'CustomPopUp','width=600, height=400, statusbar=no, menubar=no,
resizable=no') ");
txtName.Text = hdnPopResult.Value; // assigning hidden filed value to a text
filed on asp.net page
my child window
function passvalues()
{
var txtValue = document.getElementById("txtSubmit").value;if(txtValue !="")
{
window.opener.form1.hdnPopResult.value = txtValue;
opener.document.location.reload();
window.close();
}
}
btnSubmit.Attributes.Add("onclick", "passvalues()");
Any help will be apprecaited."Vinki" <Vinki@.discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message

That's normal behaviour - think about it...
When you tell a page to reload, that's exactly what it will do i.e. it will
load in precisely the way that it loaded previously - it won't "remember"
the fact that it has been changed client-side *after* it was last loaded...

Is this method client-side or server-side?

you should submit the parent instead of reload.:
window.opener.form1.hdnPopResult.value = txtValue;
window.opener.form1.submit();

It is a server side code.
