Question

I want to make a page so I can select filters in a ‘jquery popup’, but I don’t know how to receive the results.

Suppose I have a page with a ListView, and I want to select filters for it (perhaps with multiple selection from a list), so I make a different ASPX and open it using jquery (actually jqModal) via ajax, the user selects the filters, and accepts.

How do I get that selection to rebind my ListView?

(…)

I just selected the URL for the link above in a jQuery popup, that’s exactly what I want to do… how is it accomplished?

I think the simplest solution would be to have an asp button with style=’display:none’. In the javascript function which closes the popup, fake a click on that button. Then have a regular event handler to rebind your listview.

HTML:

<div class='jqmWindow' id='dialog'>     <asp:ListView runat='server' id='lvFilter' /> </div> <asp:Button runat='server' id='btnFilter' OnClick='btnFilter_Click' style='disaply:none' /> 

Javascript:

$('#dialog').jqm({     onHide:function() {       $('#<%= btnFilter.ClientID %>').click();     } }); 

Server Side:

btnFilter_Click todo normal filtering.
