Popup dialog opens new window on postback
hi all,
many times we use popup dialogues opened with window.showmodaldialog(“samp.aspx“). but if there is postback happening on this window , you would see that this aspx opens in a new window.
i have a solution.. which is
add this to the head of your aspx
<head>
<title>Text</title>
<BASE target="_self">
.
.
</Head>
after adding you need to kill worker process rebuild and restart iis before you test this.
bcos iis always serves the cached version of the aspx as a popup.

What if the page you're calling is not under your control? (can't add <BASE target="_self"> )Anonymous
