' VB code

}

//Check this out - do it on the button click

create your general functions under app_code folder so that you can access it anywhere..

Hi Svibuk,

Have the method in a seperate class,

Instantiate the class and call the method using the instantiated object ....

Hope this helps you

I see nothing posted so far that will actually work, at least not without a lot of effort, so try this:

Page1.aspx.cs:

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // Insure that the __doPostBack() JavaScript method is created...
    this.ClientScript.GetPostBackEventReference(this, string.Empty);

    if (this.IsPostBack)
    {
  string eventArgument = (this.Request["__EVENTARGUMENT"] == null) ? string.Empty : this.Request["__EVENTARGUMENT"];

  if ( eventArgument == "CallServersideFunction" )
  {
   yourFunction();
  }
    }
}

protected void yourFunction()
{
 this.Response.Write("yourFunction called<br>");
}

Page2.aspx:

<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
 <input type="button" onclick="callServersideFunction();" value="Call Server-side Function">
</form>

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function callServersideFunction()
{
 window.opener.<%= ClientScript.GetPostBackEventReference(this, "CallServersideFunction") %>;
}
// -->
</script>

NC...
