I have a "content page" with customer text box and search button nearby, on click of search button a new popup window should come up with list of customers. On selection of customer popup window should returned with customer object. Customer name has to show in the "content page" text box and customer object in the tag.

Can anyone provide an example to open a new popup window and return with an object.
Thanks

As Christian said, you use Javascript for this scenario. Have a look at these links.

You can use Modal PopUp extender from ajax contol toolkit.

In case you are intend to use this feature in more than one page, try to create a user control for this and use delegate to pass the selection from the usercontrol to your mainform.

Thanks,

There's tons of articles on stuff like this. Surely there's some on Code Project ? What's on your page doesn't really matter, it's javascript that handles all of this, and would work the same no matter what framework you used to generate it.

I couldn't find a particular function call back example, may be my search key words are not rich enough.
Found an example with window.opener.location.reload(), but this will reload my page which I don't want to be.
