calling a function on the parent form from a popup window

I have an asp.net form, which calls a popup window.

The popup window, based on some user input should call a
function on the parent window.

Is this possible?

I have tried creating a javascript function in the .aspx
file and used the following to call the javascript
function from the popup window

Response.Write ("<script
language=javasc ript>window.ope ner.doRefresh ();
</script>");

But I want to call not a javascript function in the .aspx
file, but a c# function in the aspx.cs file. How do I do
this?

Thanks

Hi,

As far as I know it's impossible to call parent page client script from
server side of popup window. Your client side script approach is
probably the best way. Anyway consider to use RegisterClientS criptBlock
instead of Response.write( ).

How do I put the information back into the parent so that the asp.net code in the parent can...
