Hi all,

I have developed an asp.net application i which i am using javascript for opening a child window. The parent window gets refreshed when the child window gets loaded. Also each time somebody performs any operation the parent window automatically gets refreshed.

I don't want the parent window to be refreshed till I am working with child windows. These unnecessary refresh everytime gives database calls due to which performance of the system is decreasing.

please help. Thanks in advance.

In the child window are you using the onUnload method of the body tag or are you calling window.opener anywhere?

I will only tell you how to do it, not do it for you.
Unless, of course, you want to hire me to do work for you.

yes. There is a close button in the child window. In click event of close button , I am submiting the parent form (opener window) becuse I want the changes made in the child window to be reflected in parent window. while closing the child window if parent window refreshes then its ok. but every time I perform any operation like selecting value from dropdown or clicking on link button in child window the parent window gets refreshed which i don't want.

Then you are going to have to get away from the JavaScript or use AJAX in your child window so that it never refreshes.

I don't know how to use AJAX. Would you please suggest something some book or some site from where I can learn AJAX and implement it in my application???

AJAX is very straight forward though an understanding in Javascript and XML is somewhat necessary, the links that Jim provided should help you out.
