I am trying to make a customer look up page that can send back the customer
Id to the parent page.
What is the best way to do this? It is easy in vb.net desktop application,
but other than manually posting back the customer id in form data or
querystring data, I am not sure how to do this.

Thanks,
Scott Emick

Well this follow up is in case someone else has this problem, this is
what I did. I created HTML (hidden input form) & client-sided script
on the parent form so I could change the hidden value with
window.opener.forms['form'].element['hiddenInput'].value=custId and
then call the function on the parent to process that value.

That was my quick way to accomplish what I wanted.
