Hi,


I have parent-form that displays a list of product-details. When the user
clicks on a line a child form opens that displays further details. The user
then can alter these details. On the child-form is a button that the user
uses to update the data in the database. At the click of this button I want
to close the child-form AND update the list displayed on the parent-form.

At thsi point the user needs to re-load the parent-form but he complaints
that that is confusing. Well he, being a paying customer , is right :-)

So, how can I achive this?

Take a look in my message in Experts Exchange:

Although the requirements are different, the concept is the same.
Except in your case you'd probably want to call
window.opener.__dopostback()
