Instead of showmodaldialog using now window.open to open create.cshtml And after save on ActionResult method calling this line at the end return view("CloseAndRefresh"); In this CloseAndRefresh view the code is as follows: window.close(); window.opener.document.location.reload();

In create.cshtml I have this button and it goes first to this action to save the value to database. [ActionName("Create")] [WhenRequestContainsKey("SaveData")] [AcceptVerbs(HttpVerbs.Post)] [IgnoreValidation("Comments", "File")] public ActionResult SaveData(IssueTrackerViewModel model,string returnFromEdit) { then after saving// it should close the child window and refresh the parent. }

Hi, Try like this in your index.cshtml ShowPopup(); " /> create one javascript method (you can pass all parameter) function ShowPopup() { var windowref = window; window.showModalDialog(' /IssueTracker/Create' , windowref, 'dialogWidth:1100px;dialogHeight:500px;dialogLeft:100px;dialogRight:100px;dialogTop:100px;dialogBottom:100px;center:yes;title:yes;scroll:yes;status:yes;toolbar=yes'); } in your create.cshtml function ReloadPage() { window.close(); window.dialogArguments.location.href="http://localhost:4416/ IssueTracker/Index "; } Regards, Iftikar
