Really easy question: send and recive values between pages.

[javiercuellar]

Hi.

Sorry for this question, if it is too basic.
I have some experience with asp, but not much with dot asp.

What I want to do is:

In the main page, when the user press a button, another page should open on top of main page to show several information based on some fields from main page, like user id.

The user will read some textboxes and write an observations on another textbox. Then close the page and that information should show up in the main page.


I hope that my explacation is clear.

In normal asp, I would use Query String. In dot asp, is there another "magic" way?
When I say "magic" I mean mantaining the state of objects from one window to the other.
Of course, windows should be linked, somelike a modal or child window, so that the main window "knows" when the second one closes. Well, I dont know if that is possible.

So, what is a good way of acomplishing this?

Thanks for any recomendations

Regards

Well, I answer myself.

To send info to the popup page, just using query string.

Once finish with the popup can send back the values to the parent page using normal javascript.
