"But if you are in child page, to access your parent page, you can simply use window.parent."

This doesn't seem to work. Do you have a working sample that I can view?

Thanks,

Tim

Hello,

Deeply apologize for the late response. We were in the middle of release product.
Regarding your scenario, I am not sure if this can be done or not. But if the current scenario can be done within a webpage, then the answer is yes. Perhaps, you need to figure our how to communicate the parent page with the child/iframe page.
Fyi, if you are in parent page, you can use window.frame[idx] , to access the child page.
But if you are in child page, to access your parent page, you can simply use window.parent.
When you reached the current destination page, you can access the control or the element in the current page.
If any information such as login information or session existed, you can also transfer the information the another page. Hope this helps.

Regards,
Handy

I am using webdesktop and have several child windows open at once within the webdesktop. The child windows are using ContentMode = "UseIFrame".

For security reasons I need the user session to expire if no activity has been detected in any of the child windows or the webdesktop. About 2 minutes before timeout expires a modal popup on the webdesktop should display asking user if they want to continue session or logout. If no answer or timeout expires then they need to be redirected to the login page.

Do you have any samples of how this could be accomplished? Is it possible for the webdesktop to know last time any of the child windows had a postback?
