Hi
I am using asp.net 2.0 . I have 2 web pages. parentPage.aspx and popuppage.aspx.I need to transfer all items of the listbox from child page to parentpage listbox. I am using a hidden field in parent page to capture the values.Also I want to refresh the parentpage so that the parent page listbox items are available on the server side also because I need to push these values into the database. The code below does populate the parent page listbox with values but values don't persist once the page is refreshed. I know I need to use the "__doPostBack" function of javascript but I am struggling with this. Please help me out. ParentPage.aspx--------------------------<script type="text/javascript"> functionOpenPopup() {window.open('popuppage.aspx','childpage','width=350,height=350,scrollbars=yes'); }function SetFruitsIntoListBox(hdnField) {var fruitsbox = document.getElementById('lstFruits'); var temp = new Array(); var finalarray = new Array(); temp = hdnField.split(','); for(var i=0;i<temp.length;i++) {finalarray=temp[i].split(':'); var newOption = new Option(); newOption.text = finalarray[0];newOption.value = finalarray[1];fruitsbox.options[i]=newOption;}}</script>
<asp:Panel ID="panel1" runat="server"> <asp:ListBox ID="lstFruits" runat="server" SelectionMode="Multiple"> </asp:ListBox> <asp:HiddenField ID="hdnField" runat="server" /> <br /> <asp:Button ID="btn2" runat="server" Text="OpenListBox1PopUp1" OnClientClick="OpenPopup()" /><asp:panel> popuppage.aspx --------------------<script type="text/javascript"> function TransferChildValuesToParentPage() {var arr = new Array(); var lbox = document.getElementById('<%= lstBox.ClientID %>'); var hidden = window.opener.document.getElementById('hdnField'); hidden=""; for(var i=0;i<lbox.length;i++) {hidden += lbox.options[i].text+':'; hidden += lbox.options[i].value+','; }window.opener.SetFruitsIntoListBox(hidden);window.close();}</script>
<form id="form1" runat="server"> <div> <asp:ListBox ID="lstBox" runat="server" SelectionMode="Multiple"> <asp:ListItem Value="1">Oranges</asp:ListItem> <asp:ListItem Value="2">Apples</asp:ListItem> <asp:ListItem Value="3">Pineapples</asp:ListItem> </asp:ListBox> <br /> <input type="button" id="btnTransfer" value="TransferChildValuesToParentPage" onclick="TransferChildValuesToParentPage()" />
Please let me know how to make the hidden field values persist on the server side of parent page also so that they are available for further processing.thanks & regardscasukhela krishna
