Passing a value from child window to parent
- by gnomixa
Here is my scenario: i have a parent web page, in my javascript code I open a new window. This new window is a server-side aspx page. This child page needs to save some data in the database, and after saving it returns an ID. Now, I need to pass this ID from the child server page to the parent's javascript.
Essentially I need the child server code to trigger:
1) return the value to the javascript code of the parent page
2) close itself
What would be the acceptable way to do it?
